Issues with HP K8600 printer.

I am having a couple of problems with a HP Officejet Pro K8600 printer. Firstly, when printing on it the printer seems to take the paper in very roughly and it comes out the other end slightly crumpled up.

Secondly, when I try to print out an A4 poster it says before I print that the borders of section one are outside the printable area. However if I try to print the same A4 poster to any of my other two printers it prints fine. If I print to the K8600, it comes out slightly askew with the bottom border missing.

Is this a problem with the printer itself, or can settings be changed? Even if I click to scale for A4 the same problem arises on the K8600.

Sounds like there may be a paper feed/roller problem, you may need to have it checked.
How old is it? Has it always done this? Are you using paper of the appropriate thickness for the machine?

Guys, I had a good look today and I think I've sorted the crumpling aspect by jamming a bit of cardboard into over a little spike that the paper comes out of.

However I still don't understand why this printer misses parts of the A4 sheet, whereas the other two printers print the same sheet fine.

Any ideas, could it be in the settings somewhere?
