Dave, thanks for adjusting the bug status. Regrettably I am unable to test with HP printers locally. One of the reasons we switched to Brother was their support for Linux. We use both the HL-5370DW for business printing, albeit with several different custom sizes, and the MFC-6490CW for colour architectural prints up to 11"x17". However, the Brother Linux drivers havn't changed since 2009, and so I should think that it is something upstream that changed. The best that I can guess is that stock page size, i.e., US Letter, is somehow overriding the custom page directive from lp, and then too, the offsets are being incorrectly calculated.
I will do my best to find a test bed for an HP printer, and report back. As you can probably surmise from my past bug reports all relating to custom page sizes breaking in new releases, it would be great if we might include this as part of the general test suite for cups even keeping in mind the changes that I am hearing about in version 1.6?
