I have done this many times over the time since I installed Feisty's
testing releases, using both gnome-print-manager and the command line
(lpadmin) to work with the printer. It has no effect; you'll notice
that the PDF print preview that Evolution generates is affected by the
same problem. It would appear, given this, that the problem is
somewhere in Evolution's page generation mechanisms, but I certainly
cannot navigate the source to find out—it's huge, and I would have no
clue what to look for.
