I have a similar problem: The printer is an HP Officejet Pro L7600, which used to work fine on an earlier Ubuntu. But when I upgraded to the latest xubuntu (LTE 14.04), the pages all have a blank margin about 1.3 or 1.4 cm wide, and the text in that area (title, page number, date, etc.) in blank. The titles at the top typically have the bottom of descenders in letters like 'p', 'q', and 'y', showing that the text was "placed" correctly in PDF/PS, but the top parts of the letters are erased by something.

I've poked around in all the config stuff I can find, and done a bit of googling, and found comments about the problem on several forums, but as here, I've found no answers. The fact that the printer printed in the margin area (up to about 2 cm from each edge) proves that it's not the printer's fault.

Anyone have a clue for how to fix it?
