InDesign CC not printing full page

Hello,

I am using InDesign CC and trying to print a multiple page PDF I imported using the PlaceMultipagePDF script. I made the necessary corrections and started to print the file, but only a fifth of the page is printing onto the paper. The fifth that made it onto the paper is the correct size, it's just lacking the other 80%. I printed the same PDF file from Adobe Acrobat and it printed correctly. Any ideas?

I tried flushing the .tmp files in the windows/system32/spool/printers folder, but to no avail. I'm using a PCL6 driver.

Most InDesign experts recommend you stick with printing from your PDF in Acrobat. It has much stronger support for printers like yours than InDesign's printing engine.

    Good info, thanks. It's odd though, because I've done this same operation with other PDFs and had no problems

    Got it working on my other printer which uses a PS driver, I guess that'll have to work for now
