[kde-linux] Printer defaults location?

[Thomas Taylor]

Could anyone tell me where the printer defaults for kde applications are
stored?  My Brother HL-1440 prints right down to and beyond the bottom of a
page in kde apps.  I can correct this by going into the "properties" tab and
resetting the bottom margin from "0.50 in" to "0.75 in" which results in a half
inch bottom margin but I'm lazy and don't like having to do that every time I
print something (frequently)

I've edited the Brother ppd file in /usr/share/cups/model/Brother/HL-1440-hl1250. 
ppd.gz changing the imageable area bottom from 792 points to 738 points but that 
didn't solve the problem.

As shown on the linked screenshots below, the top and bottom margins are set to
0.50 in.  What I would like to know is how are these values derived or where
are they stored.  Am I editing the wrong file?

I've done a search for "0.50 in" in /etc, ~/, and /usr but didn't find a match.

Thanks for any help and suggestions, Tom
