Help on Epub correct numbering and index

Hello guys,

I have a bunch of epub reading files. I read on my desktop. I have tried a bunch of epub reading apps. But eventually I am settling down with SumatraPDF because its lightness.

There are a lot of good books I like so much that I would like to print these out as physical books so I can have the feeling of flipping pages.

I know and already installed the software Calibre which helps convert Epub to PDF for printing as it looks like the only solution.

But the thing is that the Index part in my original epub book is already doesn't fit with the correct page the term I want to look up.

I think the index part is legitimate as correctly as the physical book but on epub it doesn't fit at all. For example, "nutrition 45," I can click on 45 and it takes me to the page it has the first word "nutrition" but that page is not 45th one.

Do you think whether I figure out to have the size of pages fit well regarding to index?

In the attachments, the first one is one of my pdf books, which is perfectly for printing out as it looks as the legit physical book.
The 2nd is one of my epub books (I think all my epub books have this kind of problem: indexing is correctly as the physical books but doesn't fit with page numbering) and the last one is a pdf book I converted from epub by Calibre.

How can I adjust or converting my epub book into pdf which I can read as its legit physical book like my first attachment? Is it possible? Or I have to live with having a print-out with wrong page numbering regarding to the index like my 3rd attachment? it is not appealing enough for me to read after being printed out anymore.
