That's the first time I hear about a ppd file. I don't know if I'm using the same ppd file on windows and linux. I'm not sure I use a ppd file on windows because I suppose it uses the for printing HP PCL language and not the postscript. As for Linux, I don't know too. I found : /usr/src/hplip-0.8.8/prnt/hpijs/ppd/HP-DeskJet_970C-hpijs.ppd (but I'm using a newer version of hplip) and, of course : /etc/cups/ppd/HP970Cxi.ppd >Are you using the duplexer and does one configuration have the duplexer >turned on and the other turned off. > >Tom > > > > I don't use the duplexer on either systems. I know there is a difference on the margins with the duplexer. The thing is, what I have on my linux conf is the printable area size given by HP (http://hplip.sourceforge.net/tech_docs/printable_areas.html). But I'm sure there is something that can be done to use all printable area that the printer is capable, because it is possible with gimp and with windows. As for the ppd file, isn't it possible for me to edit that file a modify the printable area according to my printer capabilities ?
