The APA manual says "centered on the page" (p. 249) which I take to
mean from the left and right and top and bottom. If they just meant left
and right, I think they would have left it with "centered". The sample
paper on p. 258 also shows it centered on both dimensions. So take
that for what its worth (which is about what you paid for it).
