Description of problem: The recommended driver for my printer -- HP LaserJet 3200 Foomatic/pxlmono (recommended) -- thinks it can print wider/taller than a page (letter). The Foomatic/gimp-print-ijs driver does the right thing. A cups test page printer with the latter (gimp-print) shows the scales around the outside while the former (pxlmono) shows only the largest gradations. Version-Release number of selected component foomatic-3.0.2-39.4.fc6 How reproducible: Always. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Hook up a parallel HP Laserjet 3200 2. System->Administration->Printing->New Printer->HP LaserJet 3200 LPT parport0 HPLIP 3. Select default driver: Foomatic/pxlmono 4. Print test page Actual results: Borders of measurements are not printing; only largest gradations are seen. Expected results: Page prints with proper margins. Additional info: gimp-print-ijs model work. Bug #214037 comment #22 says "The margins information only seems to be recorded in the gimp-print-ijs XML file, not in the printer XML files."
