Hi all,
some time ago I sent a message to this list because of problems with A6 page
format for MFP 3330. I still could not solve this issue, but I have some
remarks which might help solving this problem.
I use Ubuntu Feisty with HPLIP 1.7.3. To me it seems that the printer doesn't
know about page sizes at all and just always prints to a sort of default page
size, say A4. It is the task of the driver to place the document (which has
possibly different page size than A4) on the default page size (A4).
Example:
ooo = A4 page
xxx = A6 page
The user wants to print out
xxx
xxx
xxx
The driver places this on a A4 page in the following way:
ooxxxoo
ooxxxoo
ooxxxoo
ooooooo
ooooooo
ooooooo
Then the printer prints this document and because A6 page size is loaded in
the tray, he gets the desired result
xxx
xxx
xxx
Is this right? To be honest I don't really know very much about printing, I
just thought that it might be this way.
The problem, which I have is that the driver places the A6 page in the
following way:
xxxoooo
xxxoooo
xxxoooo
ooooooo
ooooooo
ooooooo
And so I only get the 'last column' of the 'x' on my A6 paper, i.e. the
printout is not complete.
Because of this it might be a solution to manually place the A6 document on
the A4 page in the correct way. Does anybody have an idea how to do this?
