Public bug reported:
Ever since upgrading to Precide I'm fighting with my printer.
Unfortunately, so far I could not track down the exact package - I
already tried to downgrade cups, ghostscript, etc to the Debian Squeeze
versions (I have a change chroot for that).
So every time after rebooting the system somehow the top page marging is
increased by 2cm. Setting it to small values in the printers.conf does not
help. Running "lpoptions -p FS-1000+ -o page-top=0" in rc.local does not help
either. Setting the users values in $HOME/.cups/lpoptions also does not help.
Changing values in the PPD file does not seem to have any effect on the top
margin.
The only solution I found so far is to delete and to re-install the
printer from scratch every time after a reboot. Rather annoying, as I
don't have a script for that so far.
I really would appreciate any suggestions how to fix this annoying
problem.
Printer is a Kyocera FS-1000+ (pcl only). I also tried several PCL generators
(Foomatic, hpijs), it does not change anything about the top-margin problem
either.
Unless there are other suggestions, I will try to update to the next ubuntu
version next week.
Thanks,
Bernd
