Bug Description
Binary package hint: system-
The margins for the HL-1030 printer driver seem to be not correct.
There are always about 0.1-0.2 inches margin cut on top and bottom of the printed page.
I am using the HL-1250 driver with Ubuntu 8.04.
(Note: My printer is ok, with MS-Windows I do not have this problem.)
If I print the appended PDF, the headline will be cut to "port a bug about..." (i.e. "Re" on the sheet's bottom margin is cut),
and the last digit ("3") of the date "22.06.2008 21:33" will be cut in the middle (top margin).
Is there a way to correct the margins for myself in some configuration file, or is this a severe driver bug?

To post a comment you must log in.
The margins are determined in the PPD file under ImageableArea:
*ImageableArea A4/A4: "18 36 577 806"
The values are expressed in PostScript point size. The first two values are the x and y coordinates of the lower left corner and the next two values are the x and y coordinates of the upper right corner (lx ly ux uy) of a portrait A4 page.
1 PostScript point = 1/72 inch and 1 inch = 25,4 mm
Changing these values should allow you to print the full page, please report back the improvements you made to the PPD file.
