Thanks for the info. I am however confused re GtkHTML3.14 as that
package is already in Feisty:
http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty/gnome/gtkhtml3.14

I'll give Gutsy a try once it's released.

Can anyone confirm that the bug has been fixed in Gutsy?

Agreed & thanks for the previous suggestions.

You will also need the updated gtkhtml package, since part of the fix

I've pretty well given up & now just using print to PDF & then adjust
from there.

Thanks anyway. Note: I'm willing to keep trying as I have a test system
that I can try on, but I think that any fixes for this bug should be
backported to Feisty from the repos.

That might work for you, but it does not work for me:  My printer throws
an error any time it detects that the application is trying to print
outside of the hard range for whatever page type is currently in the
feeder.

Unfortunately for me, the local Wal*Mart doesn't carry A4 paper.  If
they did...

I would buy it.  Just to work around this bug.

I am not sure that it is a different bug... I would guess that it is the
result of running-over on the previous pages, and assuming that it needs
another page of output.  It could be a different bug, I suppose, but I
think that if the printing issues are fixed with regard to actually
printing on the page as it is supposed to, that the extra page will
disappear.

It looks like it has already been filed, though—see bug 94774.

I have done this many times over the time since I installed Feisty's
testing releases, using both gnome-print-manager and the command line
(lpadmin) to work with the printer.  It has no effect; you'll notice
that the PDF print preview that Evolution generates is affected by the
same problem.  It would appear, given this, that the problem is
somewhere in Evolution's page generation mechanisms, but I certainly
cannot navigate the source to find out—it's huge, and I would have no
clue what to look for.
