I neglected to mention another alternative: paper size. Since your top margin is missing, try adding an inch or 2.2 cm to your paper length in a custom setting, which most printer properties setups can accommodate. Also, you may try using inches or points instead (72/inch). It may simply be that the driver has the wrong conversion factor. Please let us know what you discover.
