Tim – read the ReadMe file with the driver! The printer driver reports to PPage what the Printable page size is. <grin> 8.0×10.6 is the maximum printable area for letter size paper. The "tiny" offsets are 0.2 inches for the top and bottom of the page and 0.25 inches for the left and right sides of the paper. 8.5×11.0 page size: I just flipped through the Tech Reference Manual and I can't find any way to set the logical page width to that of the paper. The 11 inches vertically would be easy to do, but the printer driver would have to eat the data for the first 0.25 inches of each row. This shouldn't be too hard to do – just a matter of doing it. The printer would eat any data going past the right edge of the logical page. I will consider adding this next time I do any work on the driver. I cheat when I use PPage. I set the page size to 8.0×10.6. It is possible to use PPage (3.0) with the page size set to 8.5×11.0 and not have offset problems. You use the offset (x and y) option in the print requestor. You would have to set the x value to 0.25 inches and the y value to 0.2 inches – these might have to be negative, I can't remember. But for this to work properly, you MUST be sure there is nothing printable in the left 0.25 inches and the top 0.2 inches, or PPage will not do the offset. You will have to play with this and see how it works for you. I'm no C expert either! Learn by playing – there is no other way unless you are paid to program <grin>. 73, Kelly
