Description Tom Horsley 2010-05-26 14:41:40 UTC
Description of problem:

Configuring a network HP LaserJet 8150DN printer at work, the fedora 13
default choice for a driver was:

HP LaserJet 8150 Series Postscript (recommended)

The test page that prints has no black border and the test output claims
the media limits are 1x1 to 214x277 millimeters (which is awful close to the
edges of the page).

Switching to the HP LaserJet 8150 Foomatic/Postscript driver
gives me a normal black border around the test page and says the
media limits are 6x13 to 210x267 millimeters (which is more believable).


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
cups-1.4.3-6.fc13.x86_64
system-config-printer-1.2.1-1.fc13.x86_64

How reproducible:
No reason to think it wouldn't happen every time

Steps to Reproduce:
1.see above
2.
3.
  
Actual results:
printout expanded, border clipped off

Expected results:
border printed on the page

This driver is /usr/share/ppd/HP/hp-laserjet_8150_mfp-ps.ppd.gz, which comes from the hpijs binary package, built from the hplip source package.  Changing component.

Can you try this PPD?

In system-config-printer open properties of that printer.
Press 'Change..' to change Make and Model.
Select 'Provide PPD file' and use this attached one.

Comment 3 Tom Horsley 2010-05-28 12:25:55 UTC
I'll give it a try when I get back to work on Tuesday, so it will be a few
days.

Comment 4 Tom Horsley 2010-06-01 12:10:58 UTC
I'm looking at the test page now, and it printed fine. The border is back and it fits on the page.

The only thing strange is Driver Version is reported as PPD-VERSION-STRING
(but actually, looking at the original test printout with the missing
border, I see the same version description).

Comment 5 Jiri Popelka 2010-06-04 09:32:00 UTC
Can you try new hplip build ?
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=176434

Download all x86_64 packages and install them
su -c  'yum --nogpgcheck localupdate hp*.rpm'

Then configure printer queue with
'HP LaserJet 8150 Series Postscript (recommended)'
driver.
 Thanks

Comment 6 Tom Horsley 2010-06-04 12:38:17 UTC
Installed all the new packages, deleted and re-created the printer from scratch,
and it seem to work. The test output does indeed print the black border, and
it gets closer to the edge than before, so it seems to have a better idea
of the actual media limits of the printer. It still says "PPD-VERSION-STRING"
on the test printout page though instead of printing an actual Driver Version.
