I'm trying to print a copy of cvsbook.ps using KGhostView.  Originally, my=
=20
ghostview config was using -sDEVICE=3Dx11, but I've also tried -sDEVICE=3Dc=
dj550,=20
because I have an HP560C.

I'm also using CUPS and had quite a time getting it configured, but it does=
=20
print.

I try to print just page 6, because the headers are not being printed, and=
=20
I've already killed to many trees...

=46rom KGhostView's print dialog, I expand it so I can select only the curr=
ent=20
page, and I enable print preview.

The page looks good. The header is about a half inch from the top, and the=
=20
first line is about an inch down.  Setting margins seems to have no effect.

When the document actually prints, the header is missing and the line that =
was=20
at one inch is at a half inch.  I think the header may have been cut off by=
=20
the printer because it can't print with something like .33 of an inch from=
=20
the top.

Why aren't the margins being used?  Why doesn't a .ps file just appear on=20
paper as it does on the screen?

Is there something else I need to install or configure?
