The Problem: When I print from programs like OpenOffice, StartOffice or Netscape the printing sometimes overlaps, goes past the page margins or even sometimes beyond an object's margings (Things like tables will cause this). If I use print to file then have ghostscript to view it everything looks normal. I can even do ps2pdf and everything still looks fine when viewed. The Software: cups-1.1.18.0_5 cups-base-1.1.18.0_5 cups-lpr-1.1.18.0_5 cups-pstoraster-7.05.6 fontconfig-2.2.0 freefonts-0.10_1 freetype2-2.1.4_1 gimp-print-4.2.5 XFree86-4.3.0,1 XFree86-clients-4.3.0_2 XFree86-documents-4.3.0 XFree86-font100dpi-4.3.0 XFree86-font75dpi-4.3.0 XFree86-fontCyrillic-4.3.0 XFree86-fontDefaultBitmaps-4.3.0 XFree86-fontEncodings-4.3.0 XFree86-fontScalable-4.3.0 XFree86-FontServer-4.3.0_1 XFree86-libraries-4.3.0_5 XFree86-Server-4.3.0_8 Xft-2.1.2 The Hardware: HP DeskJet 697C via parallel port Cups is configured as such: HP DeskJet 690 series, CUPS+Gimp-Print v4.2.5 via parallel port The OS: 4.8-STABLE FreeBSD 4.8-STABLE #21 Has anybody had this sort of problem before and how has it been fixed? I was thinking of just removing CUPS and its dependents and start over. Help is greatly appreciated. TIA
