Dear Maintainer,
We have a PT9500PC and a PT9800PCN which is compatible to the
PT9500PC (confirmed by Brother). Both printers produce
additional margins at the left and right side of each printed label. These
margins are completely unrelated to the margins set using the CUPS options,
therefore this actually resulted in a label which is slightly larger than
the specified page size. Finally I figured out that setting the margin to
zero using the documented ESC-sequence solved that problem (see the
attached patch).

Description: Set margin to zero
PT9500PC produces an annoying margin left and right of each label.
Setting the margin to zero using the documented ESC-sequnce fixed
this behaviour. Attention: Not tested on other printers.

The concerned code has changed too much; let's just close this. Please reopen
if you still have a patch to apply against the latest printer-driver-ptouch
source.
