seems to be some corrections are need to be placed thru the "Linux Printer Database Site" (forgot the url) Brother HP-1240 Printer uses the "HP Laserjet IIp" driver(!!!) and NOT the "HP Laserjet 4/5/6" driver. as such, after my breif (very helpful tip from Brother Tech Support), this problem is now solved with printing only the "test pages (ascii and postscirpt) within the printtool - the left and top margings being "cut" short by 1-2 character widths. But, thru further experimentation with "kedit" and "netscape", they still print by cutting the margins and only printing the 1/4 page in netscape! Maybe this problem could be atleast corrected w/i the mdk distro release by adding an entry for the Brother HL-1240 printer (possible? dunno...whatever). *Note on additional research: Also, was advised (thru same tech support guy) that the Brother HL-1250 printer (very similar to 1240) should use the "HP Laserjet 4" driver. Unknown on further specifics since i don't have a 1250! (don't know if this is the hp laserjet 4/5/6 or hp laserjet 4- dithered drivers).
