There is also a driver named hp-deskjet_3520_series-hpijs.ppd
available, but in trying that, not only did the footers still not
print, but the headers did not print either. In the printer listing,
there is an entry for the 3520 E-All-In-One, but it uses the same
ppd file as the standard (recommended) 3520 entry.
Sounds like the margin declared in the PPD file is wrong.
If you do print and select the page setup tab, do you have an option
for margins? You may want to try to set wider margins.
Headers and footers printed in LibreOffice, single-sided, I did not
see an option for double-sided printing. Web browser headers and
footers print closer to the top and bottom edges of the paper, than
where LibreOffice prints them.
I'm pretty sure the option for double sided is there; I just don't
recall where off the top of my head.
The only place where I see an option for margins is in the
Chrome/Chromium/Vivaldi print settings. Once this is changed to
Custom and I drag the bottom margin closer to the edge of the paper,
the footers displayed in the Print Preview window, then
disappear. They only reappear if I move the margin back to its
default setting or above the location of the footers.
There are no options for exact placement of the footers?
One thing to try is to print double sided on the short end rather than
the usual long end. This will not do the right thing (the flip side
pages will be reversed), but it might help indicate whether it's the
application or the printer/driver combo. I would be inclined to
suspect the printer and/or driver as the source of the problem,
though.
Printing this way (in landscape mode):
Chrome printed headers and footers on all pages.
I wanted you to print in portrait mode, but with landscape-type double
sided.
On the odd-numbered pages, Firefox did not print "X of X" (current
of total pages) at the lower left of the page, only the current date
and time printed at the lower right. On the even-numbered pages, the
complete footers printed.
Not quite sure how to interpret that, in landscape mod.
Printing portrait with flip on short edge:
Chrome did not print headers or footers on any page. Firefox printed
headers-only on odd-numbered pages and printed both headers and
footers on even-numbered.
One other question: in both Firefox and Chrome, how far are the
top of the headers and bottom of the footers from the respective edges
of the page?
In Chrome, the headers are at 0.33" from the top, the footers are at
.18" from the bottom, when the margins are moved to their placement on
the screen.
WRT Firefox: I don't know if this information will help, but in the
preferences file (aka about:config), print_print_margin_top and
print_print_margin_bottom both show (as string) 0.5 for the value, but
if this actually means 1/2" from both top and bottom, the headers and
footers print closer than that to the top and bottom of the pages. The
preferences print_print_unwriteable_margin_top and
print_print_unwriteable_margin_bottom both show (as integer) 13 as the
value. I'm not finding a setting anywhere to manually change the margins
in Firefox.
