[Dapper Flight-6] Page margins are slightly off when printing on a Canon S600 printer

[John Doe]

I have a Canon S600 printer connected via USB and am running a freshly installed Ubuntu Dapper Flight 6 release. When printing the printer test page (Under System menu -> Administration -> Printing -> Canon S600 printer icon -> Edit menu -> Properties -> "Print a Test Page" button), part of the bottom and right border of the test page gets cut off on a U.S. Letter test page. I scanned the printout of this test page and will attach it. I made sure the "Advanced" tab had the "PageRegion" set to "U.S. Letter". The resolution there is 600x600 dpi, plain paper. I also made sure the "Paper" tab has "US Letter" chosen for the "Paper Size". On the "Driver" tab, the Manufacturer chosen is "Canon", Model is "S600", Driver is "bj8pa06n.upp (recommended) (Suggested)".

This is a scan of the printed test page. Since I am out of all the color inks, only black/gray stuff would be visible on it. It should outline where the bottom and right border is cut off.

please could you recheck after a dist-upgrade to dapper 20060414, removal and reinstallation of the printer?

I did an "apt-get dist-upgrade" in dapper on April 15 around 8am eastern time. I rebooted after the update. I removed the Canon S600 printer. I then re-added it (it took over a minute for the new printer dialog to come up). I then printed a test page and it printed the same way as before, with the bottom border and the right border being cut off.
