Ok, this is not driver dependent, I see it with the generic PostScript PPD
(driver). The page size in your template is "22cm x 15.5cm". Which is not C5
landscape (which would be  22.9cm x 16.2cm). As I suspected this is a non
printer paper format that is nowadays centered on the paper that gets actually
used (which is incidentally C5 since it is the supported format from the PPD
that comes closest). The centering is indeed a change from 3.2, however that
change was intentional (reasoning that most likely you are going to have a
better result when printing on a paper of the wrong format since there is more
border space potentially to fill).

I found a PPD file for the Epson Aculaser C1100 from here:

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EpsonAcuLaserC1100

The printer seems to support C5 as paper but it uses non standard naming. Which
leads to only "A4" and "Letter" being supported by name. More serious: the PPD
constraints Paper format "C5" to Duplex and inputslot "Auto" (the latter of
which is at least the default). If you'd not use CUPS to print, you could use
the spadmin utility to set these to ignore. Otherwise I have no good
recommendation, you could comment out all the fluffy "*UIConstraints" in the PPD
file, but that is not a solution.

This is not the first PPD that has some strange UIConstraints. CUPS seems to
ignore them mostly, so perhaps we should add an option to do that, too.
