From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4.1) Gecko/20031114 Description of problem: My Okidata OL600ex, using the Ghostscript ljet2p driver, needs special Margins and .HWMargins definitions in order to place the text where it ought to be. I have been using the linuxprinting.org alignmargins + align.ps for this with great success earlier on my RH 7.3 install. However, after upgrading to Yarrow, redhat-config-printer regenerates the CUPS configuration (including .ppd files) each time the cups service starts. The Custom Margin configuration which alignmargins creates is then removed. Ideally, I would like a similar functionality implemented from within redhat-config-printer (possibly with more intuitive instructions than those from align.ps). In addition, it should be possible to register this in the printer database, so that others can benefit from my experience with this printer. If redhat-config-printer already supports this, there certainly lacks some documentation about the matter. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): redhat-config-printer-0.6.79.5-1 cups-1.1.19-13 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Run alignmargins 2. service cups restart 3. Margins lost Actual Results: The Margins configuration is reset to default values. Expected Results: The Margins configuration should be retained.

Fedora Core 1 is maintained by the Fedora Legacy project for security updates only. If this problem is a security issue, please reopen and reassign to the Fedora Legacy product. If it is not a security issue and hasn't been resolved in the current FC5 updates or in the FC6 test release, reopen and change the version to match. Thanks! NOTE: Fedora Core 1 is reaching the final end of support even by the Legacy project. After Fedora Core 6 Test 2 is released (currently scheduled for July 26th), there will be no more security updates for FC1. Please use these next two weeks to upgrade any remaining FC1 systems to a current release.
In FC6 CUPS configuration will no longer be generated from separate configuration files; instead CUPS is configured directly.
