The CD tray option is available, but no matter what I do I cannot get the margins right. Neither can I print A4 borderless.

HP Photosmart C5280 - CD printing
I gave up on trying to get a Lexmark to work in Ubuntu. I bought the above HP C5280. It is an "all in one printer/scanner etc" It worked straight out of the box. I am delighted. (Cost $130 - $50 Cash back.) My choice of printer was influenced by it's ability to print direct to an inkjet printable CD. It has a special caddie for this purpose. Can someone maybe tell me how to get it to work? Dave W -- ubuntu-au mailing list ubuntu-au@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-au
