Footer not printed completely or not at all

Sometimes footers are not printed. On other pages of the same document, they sometimes show up correctly.
Also, a three line footer is printed only partially.
The footers are displayed on the screen and the PDFs are OK as well. The printed PDFs show all footers completely. but printed .odt or .doc files do not.
Does anyone know what may cause this problem? It is inherited from OOo. It has nothing to do with cleaned-up code or anything the LibO developers did.

Set-up: Ubuntu 10.9, LibO 3.3, printer HP deskjet 840C

Thanks for any suggestion.

This may be a problem with how the printer handles items that are outside of their nominal minimum
margins; if your PDF setup is allowing any kind of scaling or repositioning options, that may be why
the PDFs print nicely but the direct printing is not reliable. And if you have different page styles
within the document, that could explain some pages being OK and others not. Any chance this is
what's happening?

What is the bottom margin on the page? Most of the older HP Inkjets need
about 0.6" free space at the bottom.
