inkscape artwork shifted down when printing

[Esther]

I attempted to print a simple drawing with a box and some text. I setup the drawing with 0.5 inch margins using the guides. Checked the drawing in print preview and the drawing appeared normal. Upon printing, the drawing was shifted down 0.5 inches and the bottom of the drawing is cutoff. A reprint with no adjustment to the drawing produced the same results.

Printer is HP5610. Printable area is normally 0.25 inches on sides and top and 0.5 inches on the bottom. The drawing should have fit into the printable area.

Not reproduced on Crunchbang Waldorf, Inkscape 0.48.3.1 and trunk revision 13508, on a virtual printer.

Printing as vector (Rendering tab) works perfectly, and printing as bitmap shifts up (yes, up, not down) the drawing a bit (know issue reported Bug #508529).

Could you please test again and confirm it's fixed with a recent Inkscape version on a recent Ubuntu OS?

Tested again with a similar drawing and margins, printing as a vector drawing directly from Inkscape. The drawing appeared to print as it should.

Ubuntu 13.10
Printer HP Officejet 6700
inkscape 0.48.4-1ubuntu3

Thanks for reporting back.
I'm marking the report "Fix released", but don't hesitate to reopen if you run into the same issue again.
