Bug Description

Binary package hint: foomatic-db-hpijs

I have attempted to print a 4x6 photo using the full bleed (edge-to-edge) gimp+lpr method described at http://hplipopensource.com/node/325. However it leaves 1/8 inch of empty space at the top of the page. I have noticed that in fact for any document or image printed to this printer the printable region is 1/8 inch lower than it should be. Of course it is most pertinent when attempting to print full bleed photos. This printer does not have this 1/8 inch margin in windows.

I am using Ubuntu Intrepid 8.10.

In current Ubuntu PPD files for non-PostScript HP printers are generated by HPLIP itself (hpijs package). foomatic-db-hpijs only generates PPDs for non-HP printers using the HPIJS driver. Moving bug to HPLIP.
