Craig, When I output to our imagesetter, I set the page parameters for 8.5
x 11 and in the print setup window I set up for an 9-1/2 x 12 page. This
allows for the 1/2" crop marks around the page. Our imager outputs from
roll paper (film) and it is 12" wide by 150 feet. I haven't experienced the
problems your describing with the dot-matrix printer but I haven't used a
dot-matrix printer in a long time.

I know my dot matrix can't. I had it print a row of garbage as well as a
graphic full overscan dump. It seems it just can't print a full 8.5" X
11". I don't plan on doing anything over a standard page in the near
future so, I guess I'm safe as far as the imagesetters go. How about
Lasers??

Craig,
Lasers differ. Some have a margin all around the page that they can't rpint
on. It should be in the documentation. Others have a margin on the sides,
others have tha ability to print to the whole page. It just depends on the
machine.
Ciao, Neil
