What am I missing? I want a bottom margin of 0.5".
You should be able to get margins as small as 0.25in on most printers. Your description suggests a mismatch between the page size in Word and the paper size in the printer. Check, too, whether you have Word's 'Scale content for A4 or 8.5 x 11" paper sizes' option checked.
