Booklet pages not lining up

Report · Jun 15, 2018

I am trying to print a booklet. I am using Acrobat DC and an HP CLJ 2600n. The pages aren't centered, though they are in the preview. The booklet prints right up to the bottom edge of the sheet of paper but the top has about 1/4 inch of margin. There is no auto duplex so when I print on the other side, the white space throws them off. I've tried printing as image and a few other suggestions but I'm getting tired of wasting paper and toner. I'm not sure if it is an issue with the printer or not. Any ideas?

Make sure that you have the latest version of Adobe Reader installed, check for any pending updates of Adobe Reader from help>check for updates. (Assuming you are using freeware Adobe Reader as no license/subscription of Acrobat is associated with your current Adobe ID).

Also, install the latest driver/firmware of the printer you have.

What is the current version of Adobe Reader installed? To identify refer to Identify the product and its version for Acrobat and Reader DC
