Word 2000 - 2 sheets per page - blocked page borders

Word 2000 document:
Conditions:
1. printer – HP 2000C DeskJet
2. document orientation - landscape
3. two sheets per page
4. blocked page borders
When I try and print the system tells me: “Page borders outside printable area”. No matter how I adjust the margins I get the same message. I even went so far as to put phony margins, so WORD would tell me the margins were wrong. Then I would let WORD adjust the margins. It still didn’t make any difference.
I get the message as many times as there are pages. If I ignore the messages and continue, the printed results are as follows:
1. Even pages are fine. The full border prints.
2. For odd pages, the following prints:
     a. top, bottom and right borders print
     b. left border does not print.
Am I doing something wrong, or is this just a bug?

Hello SShowler

going to reseach this but i know for fact that in 97 you had a margin bug also it would give you exact that warning and would print anyway, i didn't use borders then but it was a bug
