Kelly, I've been using your printer driver for my HP III for about a week now, and have printed several dozen "important" documents without any problems. Any chance you'd consider re-working the driver to output exactly 8.5×11.0 without built-in margins? I know there's an unprintable border, but when I use programs like PPage, etc…to construct documents I usually put my own margins in. I'm just so tired of the tiny offsets that screw up the formatted output. I can even use Prefs to select a margin when printing ASCII, so I'd love it if when I select a margin in Ppage as 1" it would come out on the paper as 1" and not 1" plus some odd offset. Let me know what your thoughts are! (BTW, i actually looked at the C-code in the C= manuals, but being a real C novice and not really knowing what to do with the assembly language modules of the code decided not to even play around with it) Also, whenever I use your driver from PPage, it tells me the page output size is 8.0×10.6 inches. Know why that happens? THanks for listening! .. Tim Trompeter…
