I justed printed an outline sheet of 5871 on a LaserJet 2300 and they
perfectly match the size from the official .doc template.

Tested using 3.2.1-2, of course.


Whoops.  I've seen this problem with 3.2.1-2 as well.

There is no such version in Debian, yet.

Some printers shrink the page when double-sided printing is enabled
(not necessarily in use for the current job). Can you check whether
this might be the case?

Version: 3.4.0
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

When printing to various Avery templates the result is undersized such 
that the edges in the cards are misaligned vertically by about 2.5mm. 
This is enough to make the resulting look very sloppy. This can be 
remedied, kindasorta, by changing the scale to 101%.

Tested with templates 5871 (business card) and 5163 (4x2 sticker).
