can someone tell me what i should do to change the behavior of my printing. i am printing to an Epson 740 printer, and it chops off the top and the bottom of the page. Also sometimes the right margin chops off the printing too.
can i change some setting that says to print only on the allowable print area of the printer?
I'm afraid I can't help solve your problem, but for what it's worth, if you go to YaST2 and run the printer setup there, YaST will offer to print a test page which, when printed, will tell you that many printers are unable to print close to the page margins, and will offer no further help.
Inkjet printers have a non-prinatble areas (normally at top and/or bottom of
pages). I experience this too with my HP DeskJet 840C (only on the bottom
though and I can live with this). Not sure if there's anyway to adjust the
printable area - perhaps someone else knows about this?
Getting your right margin cropped is unusual unless you're printing a badly
written Web page.
