Hi Beverly,
I tried the following and it didn’t change anything. I also tried it with
margin 0px 0px 0px -100px
<style media="print">
<!--
body, p {margin 0px 0px 0px 0px; padding 0px 0px 0px 0px;}
p.page { page-break-before: always }
//-->
</style>
I was also reading the docs (below) for the printer and read that you could set
the left hand margin by sending a series of codes to the printer. I tried the
following.
<@char code="GS"><@char code="L">00
I included this in the html and printed it with no luck. I tried it with commas
between the zeroes. I also wanted to “open the cash drawer” with the following
<@char code="DLE"><@char code="DC4">104
The docs aren’t clear on how to send the codes.
I would much prefer to do this with a style sheet. Not sure why it doesn’t work.
Thanks
Steve
Function: Set left margin
Code: ASCII GS L nL nH
Hex 1D 4C nL nH
Decimal 29 76 nL nH
Range: 0 ≤ nL ≤ 255, 0 ≤ nH ≤ 255
Default: (nL + nH x 256)=0 (nL=0, nH=0)
Description: This command sets the left margin specified to [(nL + nH x 256) x
(horizontal motion units)].
Remarks: ■ The left margin is not effective in page mode. If the left margin is
enabled in page mode, the setting is available when the printer returns to
standard mode.
■ When the setting is beyond the printable area, the left margin is
automatically set to the maximum value of the printable area.
■ Since the left margin is the same as the leftmost side of the printable area,
the left side of the printable area is changed according to the left margin
specified.
■ The setting of this command remains effective until ESC @, printer reset or
power cycling is executed.

the default for body is to have margins (implied). you may have to set them to
0 (or even negative?):
body, p { margin: 0px; padding: 0px; }
while the 'px' is not required on the '0' I use it for consistency. (allows me
to debug or change the values more easily).
I don't know if a negative value (margin-left: -50px for example) would allow
the printing to start to the correct position. you'll have to test on your
printer. and only the p probably needs it.

I am trying to print receipts to a Bixolon SRP-350II receipt
printer. The paper is about 3 ½ inches wide. I displayed a html page 350 pixels
wide with a Witango taf and printed to the printer but the left hand margin was
defaulted to about 1 inch wide, so part of the display does not print. I don’t
want to have to have the user go into “Print Preview” and adjust the margins so
the entire width of the doc will print.
I did some research on JavaScript to see if I could set margins
that way. No joy!
Any ideas?
Thanks
Steve Fogelson
