Well, I did that - I was already using the printMargins settings (72 all round) to calculate where on the card to put the field that contains the print content, but at your suggestion at the last minute, just before the actual print statement, I set them to all 0s without going back and altering the position of the field. The result was (to me) extremely strange: the printing worked properly, in that each margin was now 1 inch (72 pixels). This also included the top and bottom margins. In reality my particular printer won't print on the whole paper surface, so margins of zero are meaningless. Thus I'm at a loss to understand why it worked.
The printmargins always begin at the spot on the page where the printer can start printing. If your printer imposes a 1" limitation on all edges, then setting a printmargin of another inch will get you two inches of white space.
In other words, margin "0" is where your printer can lay down the first ink.
