Description of Problem: I am using a Hewlett Packard II P Plus laser printer. I have selected the appropriate driver for my printer. Starting with RedHat 7.1, there is a wierd margin problem. Suppose you have a document in StarOffice (or applixware) which has the following margins on an A4 paper: Left : 2 cm Right : 2 cm Top : 2 cm Bottom : 2 cm The actual printout will have the following margins: Left : 2.1 cm Right : 1.9 cm Top : 1.3 cm Bottom : 2.7 cm Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 6.51 How Reproducible: Every time
But it worked in 7.0?
Exactly....
What about the printconf test pages? For example, if you print /usr/share/printconf/tests/testpage-a4.ps, does _that_ come out right? Can you attach /etc/alchemist/namespace/printconf/local.adl please?
No, the same thing for the test pages. The requested file is attached.

Thanks. Can you try this? gs -dBATCH -dSAFER -dQUIET -dNOPAUSE -sDEVICE=ljet2p -sOutputFile=output \ /usr/share/printconf/tests/testpage-a4.ps then (as root), set up a RAW queue to the same printer, and print the 'output' file that you get. I'd like to see if the margins are still wrong, or if they are getting messed up by printconf.
Nothing changed, still the margins are problematic. Hope helps.
Thanks. So it's a ghostscript problem, somehow.
