Does that "missing 2 inches at the bottom" appear in the Print Preview window? Or is it missing from there, too?

Also, are you using 8 1/2 x 11 inch paper?

The missing two inches does show in the Print preview window. It only messes up when it actually prints.

I am using 8 1/2 by 11 paper

See if changing the bottom margin to .25" helps. File > Page Setup - Margins

This was not at all helpful. Pages print OK when using Google Chrome.

I've been recently researching this problem, especially after printing from eHow.com and finding the same problem in both Firefox and IE (latest versions at the time of this post), but at differing amounts of cutoff. At first I thought it might be a print driver problem until I read about the same or similar problem people had when they try print out their own webpage they made themselves. One web designer figured that the bottom of the print is disappearing under the gutter used to print page information. Also, a possible solution for web designers was to specify different margins ("buffers") for the printed version only (which would hint that the problem could also be simple ignorance or inexperience of the person who made the webpage).

Anyway, solutions I came across for us visitors/readers:

• Try reduce at least the bottom print margin to .25 inches (or less)
• Try turn off the footer page information for printouts in your web browser

And one I found from my own trial & error:

• Reduce the printout size by 10% or so in your print preferences (I actually used zoom size of 90%).

I hope this helps.

(P.S. I am finding this problem occurring as far back as at least 2006.)
