The margins are 1/4", which my printer supports. I'm not sure why those didn't
work, but that's OK.

I searched the archives and couldn't find the problem, but now that I know what
I'm looking for, I can probably find more info. Do you know if a PDF would be
capable of containing print settings that I could code into my form? Would that
be a feature worth requesting or is it impossible?

I think I may have figured out a way to make it work without requiring the user
to turn of scaling. For some reason, Adobe always scales my documents to 94% for
all of my forms. If I adjust my measurements to compensate for that, then the
printout comes out fine. What I still don't understand is why Adobe is doing
this scaling. My form, margins included, is smaller than the 8.5x11 paper that
it's printing on. Would the amount that it's adjusting be different on different
printers? I would think that it would be the same for the same paper size
regardless of the printer.
