Centre slide on print paper

Printer HP PSC1200. In excel you can center the area to be printed on the
page before printing. How do you center the slide on the paper before
priinting in power point. I am trying to print a slide 11 x 8.3 on a legal
size page (8.5x14). I have set the slide in File/Page set up/slide sized
for/custom/width=11/ height=8.3/landscape/landscape. I have set the print
page size in Print/properties/paper size/legal. When I view the slide in
print preview it is not centered left to right on the screen (the larger
dimension) it is centered on the verticle dimension. When I print it the
feed edge is 3/4inch and the other end is 1.5inches. What am I missing.
How do you center the slide on the paper for printing.
