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!
