    template 1 prints crooked

    I tried printing template 1 on Canon printer and Brother printer .Both returned crooked copies. Help! Am I doing something wrong or does it need to be" fixed"?

    #2
    Interestingly I printed six copies - five were fine but one copy printed over FOUR pages rather than two! I still haven't discovered why, but printed another single copy and it was fine. My printer is HP.

      If your printer fed the paper crooked, it could be the printer take-up rollers. They often get coated with lint, especially if you use recycled paper. If you can get to them and clean them with alcohol and a Q-tip it may help. Your other option is to run a full sized sheet of fine grit sandpaper through the printer and it should make the rollers feed your paper more evenly to prevent crooked printouts.

        Thanks for the helpful hints. I called my computer savy friend and he said to go to printer and click print preview . Print preview showed template skewed. He then had me click , cant remember exactly but something like straighten and something else but it worked. As you can tell I'm lucky to have such a friend .Sorry I didn't post that info , for what it's worth.
