HP Inkjet printer bottom margin


I am using an HP DeskJet 2134 all-in-one inkjet printer with OpenSuse Leap 15.3, and am unable to print right to the bottom of the page of A4 from any program under Linux. This doesn't happen with the same printer connected to a Windows PC, so it must be a driver issue rather than a hardware limitation.

In programs which let me change the margin settings in the print dialog, they don't let the bottom margin be set to anything less than 0.57in or 14.48mm. This is the same whether printing landscape or portrait (ie. it is always the bottom edge of the image, whichever edge of the physical paper it is).

I was initially using the version of HPLIP that came with OpenSuse (version 3.20.11). I removed it and installed Version 3.21.12 from the HP Developers site, but that was no different.

Has anyone got any idea how to solve this?
