Yes , I have a Z53 usb printer , but whereas before when you clicked on the printer Icon in LM8.1 you were really connecting via an executeable, of: qtcups %f , to qtcups , there was a - properties - text - page margins GUI interface to reset your page margins, Now alas , this facility does not seem to exist. in LM8.2. The same executeable merely gives you - General , and , Advance. Then again if I go KDE Control Center - System - Print Manager - Configure - Configure Z53 , all I have is the usual resolution stuff, nothing about page print margins. Also, if I go Mandrake Control Center - Hardware - Printer - I have all the three drivers available for this make of printer to play with , plus , add printer, refresh , cups server, expert mode, and quit , but nothing about setting printer page margins. Trouble is , I don't know how I am to set the page margins anymore. Seems to me we've got a cut down version of qtcups, I'm sure we are meant to have printer page margins, it usually comes under the tab Text, but somehow, unless it has been moved someplace else, it does not seem to exist, anyone else got printer page margins in qtcups ? regards, John -- John Richard Smith [EMAIL PROTECTED]
