View printable area problem

I want to make a 3 column brochure, but am having problems positioning it (so that it folds nicely when printed). When I hit view printeable area, the printeable area is off center and begins waaaay too close to the left hand side. Is this a problem with my printer, or is this completely normal?
TIA
 
It varies with each printer. I work with a Fiery and a few Epsons. They always have a printable area that's off center but the B/W printer has the same parameters for each side. To compensate you may want to use the widest of the two borders so that your document looks even when it prints out.

Hope this helps.

I thought it was a problem with the printer I'm using, but just wasn'st sure.
I guess I'll just have to fiddle around with the brochure till it prints out right.
Thanks for the advice, I appreciate it.....:)
 
i have a fiery X3e, and when i installed the drivers on 6 machines, the properties on all of them where fine, exept for one.
i will get only 3 taps out of 8.
any help will be appreciated.

thanks
