Print area being chopped off

Illustrator 9.0; WIN2000; HP Deskjet 722C -- Working on pages in Illustrator with photos & copy; the print copies have started coming out with about 2" cut off the bottom of the page; tried changing document setting to legal length but keeping content within the letter-size dimensions, hoping to "fool" the printer with a "longer" print area, but not to be. Any ideas about what's going on and how to remedy? Many thanks.

...is it just illustrator, have tried as a workaround saving to pdf and printing from acrobat as a test?

Thanks for the suggestion: First time I .pdf'd it, it printed correctly (with no cut-off); second time I printed it, some gremlin decided to change the fonts to Uzbekistanese or some such -- very strange graphic.... So -- .pdf gives back the complete printable page (still, why doesn't Illustrator?), but takes away my font choices. Any more thoughts? Appreciated.
