best of my knowledge, the non-printable areas on LaserJet printers have
not changed since I first used the *_original_* LaserJet back in 1986.
They are 0.5" on each of top and bottom and 0.25" on each of left and
right (of a US Letter "portrait" page).<br><br>In order to be less
harsh on trees, I set up a virtual PDF printer with CUPS. That is where
I now test my printing problems with KDE. They occur there too.<div> </div>--<br>Bruce Miller, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada<br>bruce@brmiller.ca; (613) 745-1151<br><br><div>Traduttore traditore<div><br></div><div style="font-family: tahoma,new york,times,serif; font-size: 10pt;"><br><div style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">----- Original Message ----<br>From: Anne Wilson <cannewilson@googlemail.com><br>To: For people using KDE on Linux with related questions/problems <kde-linux@kde.org><br>Sent: Friday, November 7, 2008 3:03:49 PM<br>Subject: Re: [kde-linux] Longstanding printing problems in KDE4<br><br>On Friday 07 November 2008 19:29:23 Bruce Miller wrote:<br>> I have never been able to get a KDE 4 application to print correctly. <br><br><snip><br><br>I use HP printers, and some time ago I had a conversation with one of their <br>support team on the subject of headers.
