Printing FAQ

Why does my HP printer start each new page further down?

Because the lines per page is wrong.

If you are sending 66 lines per page, but the printer is set for 60, the "extra" 6 lines from each page will end up on the next page, so you scroll down with each page.

You can change this in the interface script (see /usr/spool/lp/model/HPLaserJet) or, on all but the oldest models, in the printer itself.
