Bottom Top Margins are off when printing from Illustrator PDF

Once I create a Illustrator document size 8.5x11inch, I save as PDF with Illustraor Default. When I print it, my bottom margin is three times as large as my top margin.  I know is not a printer problem because when I make my background in Word all black and print from pdf- my margins are 1/8 of inch on all sides (see attachment). [Note the white box is only there for saving ink.] But when I do an 8.5x11in box on Illustrator and save as the letter size document, I get the bottom margin much larger.

You need to set up the media size in the printer driver. Can you show screenshots how that is set up?

In the print dialog box. And in the settings for your printer.
