On solaris, printing to A4 sucks for quite some time now. It used to work
very well, but it changed one day and I don't have a clue when exactly
this happened. I -DO- know that older A4 manuscripts that used to print
very well, no longer do. The -FIRST- page comes out fine, the second and
later pages all are set way to high on the A4 printpage. This happens in
StarOffice (v8) docs. So, what I have to do is save every multipage
StarOfffice document as PDF and print that one. This does work.
On nevada-b.107/sxce I can print with evince OK. On solaris-10 I have to
use kpdf (from kde) to get a good printout from the pdf file.

All in all printing is not good on solaris. This is with the default
printing suystem, so no cups involved. Maybe I must change to cups?
I also have to say that all printing actually is done on the S10 server,
which has a HP-Laserjet connected. I have no idea how good CUPS for
soalris-10 is. Any ideas?
