Yes, that's what I've tried, to an HP laserjet 2100 and a xerox
workcenter. I use CUPS and the printer uses the recommended driver (the
HP2100 postscript driver). I've also tried with a generic ps driver -
same results. And I've tried it on another linux box (running Debian
instead of my OpenSuse). All with the same result.
It does print ok from gview on a windows pc (using both the GDI printer
specification and postscript). I attach the file (from x01) in case you
want to try for yourself.
Hi Steve,
I do not know if this will be a disappointment for you, but when I
printed via the
humble lp command on an OCE printer we have here, it comes out just fine.
I am not sure about the margins (some of my colleagues are rather keen
on getting
the fine details right), but it is a very presentable picture.
Now, what does that tell us about the nature of the problem? It may be the
"e" part (no fixed bounds, IIUIC)...
Regards,
Arjen
