Obvious question: What size paper is in the printer? There have been a few comments recently to the effect that if one has US letter sized paper in the printer and specify A4 paper size, the text is printed about 1" higher up the page than it ought to be, and I note the following line in your comments... Q> Paper size is a4 ...which tends to imply that at least part of that equation is correct. Sorry for lacking detail: paper size is set to A4 and the printer has A4 paper. So the other half of the equation does not apply ;-) I can't reproduce it here. What printer are you using exactly? What does your /var/spool/lpd/lp0/postscript.cfg say? I am using a TI microlaser 600 and the following is the content of the postscript.cfg file: # # configuration related to postscript printing # generated automatically by PRINTTOOL # manual changes to this file may be lost # GSDEVICE=POSTSCRIPT RESOLUTION=600x600 COLOR= PAPERSIZE=a4 EXTRA_GS_OPTIONS="" REVERSE_ORDER= PS_SEND_EOF=NO # # following is related to printing multiple pages per output page # NUP=1 RTLFTMAR=18 TOPBOTMAR=72 The new printing system solves this. |
