>From what I've read of this thread, you're saying the sheets print ok, but they are overrunning one of the margins (left margin? - since they're starting from the right you say). Just for fun, have you tried scaling down the pages that OOo prints? In Calc: Format > Page > Sheet try scaling down to see if you can get the page to print without cropping. This will at least determine if the problem is fixable by some adjustment somewhere. What do you see? It may be that the drivers understanding of the printers margins, or total printable area is not correct. If the total width is correct, but the right margin is too far to the left, then it will crop at the left margin, right? That sort of thing. >From memory (several years old now), deep down in CUPS there are config files for driver parameters that affect alignment. These are numbers that can't be manipulated normally through the print admin tools. In the past I've used some alignment test prints on HP lasers because the default driver settings had trouble. I found these on the web at the time but I couldn't locate them again just now. You could also see if TurboPrint has drivers that work for you. I think they have time limited demo versions for download. http://www.turboprint.de --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
