Can someone please reopen this bug! I have just tried the test file I attached 18 months ago again. The margins are even more broken now! Printing the test with shrink to fit enabled shows a 15mm clip at the top and bottom and 4mm each side in both single sided and duplex modes on A4.
This driver has been broken for 6 years now!!!!!!!! Or at least someone tell me what is wrong with my test :-) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to hplip in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/405116 Title: "hpcups" driver of HPLIP has broken margins Status in HP Linux Imaging and Printing: Fix Released Status in cups package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in hplip package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in hplip package in Debian: Fix Released Bug description: Binary package hint: hplip Hi. I have an HP DeskJet D2600 connected via USB. When I turned the printer on, a default configuration named Deskjet-D2600-series (using the "HP Deskjet d2600 Series [en]" driver) was generated that I can see in the gnome printer configuration window. When I print a test page the contents has a big margin at the top and the bottom is cut off. In the printer configuration if I change the driver to "HP Deksjet d2600 Series hpijs [en]" or "HP Deksjet d2600 Series hpijs 3.9.6b.4 [en]" the margin problem is corrected, but now black contents is printed in what looks like a combination of colors that appears black but looks more like dark brown. What I'm hoping for is that the margins for the default driver are corrected. I can provide any information that might be needed. Thanks.
