I made the following change to /etc/a2ps-site.cfg:


# Default medium
#Options: --medium=libpaper
Options: --medium=letterdj


N.B. this is for US letter size paper. Assuming that you are using european
standard paper sizes in Sweden, you will need to look around for the
corresponding medium commands for A4(?) paper.

You may want to try two things:

1. Look at the docs in /usr/doc/a2ps/html. Nicely laid out help there.
2. Set the default paper size. I have a DeskJet, and telling a2ps that
adjusts the margins appropriately.

A4dj worked fine. And, yes, it's a DeskJet clone that I have, an Olivetti
JP150W.
