Question

Adobe Acrobat printing output is incorrect

I recently purchased Creative Cloud and installed several of its applications on my computer, including Acrobat reader.
When I try to print some PDF documents with Acrobat Reader I have a problem with some documents not printing correctly.
To understand the problem, please see the attached PDF (date_2024-07-18).When the above document is printed on both sides of one sheet, page 2 is printed completely differently.Page 2 is printed from the bottom of the page. This is a complete misrepresentation of the document.
Along with this is a scan document of the printed pages.
(See 380019823804110 -2024-07-19)
This document prints without any problem using other Pdf software and only Acrobat Reader has this problem.
This seems to be a bug in Acrobat Reader!
Please help me to solve this problem.

Thank you guys

Bring up the printer dialog by clicking the printer icon or pressing Ctrl +p.  Check every printer setting while examining page 2 of the print preview and see if there's a setting that is causing this.

Download and install the latest print driver for your printer, here is the link, assuming you are using 32 bit Windows 10:

https://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers/hp-laserjet-pro-400-printer-m401-series/model/5307051?sku=CF399A

also check for Reader updates (under the Help menu).

Hi @Udawatta

 

Sorry for the trouble you are experiencing. 
I tried printing the file on my end, and it printed just fine. Also, I noticed the file is not created using Adobe Software. Could you make a test two-page file using Adobe Acrobat Desktop or Acrobat Web? Then, try printing it, and let us know if the issue is re-appearing at your end.  
If the issue appears, kindly share the file with us and details of the operating system, Printer make, and model. 

Will be waiting to know how it worked at your end.
