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 Additional info:
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.
Created attachment 417572 [details] modified hp-laserjet_8150_mfp-ps.ppd 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.
I'll give it a try when I get back to work on Tuesday, so it will be a few days.
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).
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
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.
