I have now had time to look around some more. I cannot see
anything else that might require resetting that isn't already
set to A4 page size, maybe I will come across something in
passing.

Yes, everything I do, I print to A4 as it's standard throughout
Europe
and beyond
but maybe one of my settings is set to letter without realising
it.. I
will check
again today when I get a spare moment.But then as you say letter
is larger
than A4, but wait a minute, isn't letter wider but shorter than A4.I
think so.

Might the Z53 driver be set for A4 paper instead of letter? A4
is slightly smaller than letter and may be the cause of your
margins being off. That is of course, if you are trying to print
to letter.

I've been configuring printers all day. There are 4 possible
drivers, I
have 2
working quite well, 1 works but has a serious problem, the 4th
not at all.
The driver that works but has problems is:-
Lexmark Z53 CUPS+GIMP-print-v4.2.2
using that difficult to use Adjust margins+offsetsof printed page
programme, with settings,
ML=1.0 ins.
MB=0.5 ins.
MT=0.5 ins.
MR=0.5 ins
X=10
Y=110
the page is centered right enough, but the headers and footers
of any test page are cut off.
I have in kde control center - system - printing manager
image set at 100% of page,
with margins
T0.988 cm
B0.988 cm
L2.505 cm
R0.988 cm
I don't think these settings should chop the headers and
footers off
but something does when I use kword to send a test page to printer,
and the same test page in the other 2 working drivers print
fine, so
it has to be either something to do with the driver itself or
some setting
in the spooling I haven't got right. This driver is worth
getting set
up as it worksquite well with Z53 printer in past experience.
I've run out of ideas
Help appreciated
John
