Hi. Your print margins are set under File > Page and Print Setup > Properties > Paper Quality.  You can then set your elements within those margins in layout view by going to Insert > Neatline. If you don't want to view the neatline, then set the options for Border & Background to None.

Hope this helps!

Oh! Right-click on layout and go to Options > Layout View > and make sure that the Margins are not automatically snapping. Then you should be able to put your cursor on the margin line and drag it along the ruler to where you want it.
