I'm having trouble with printing after switching to using CUPS,
foomatic, and gs (gs-esp) in Sarge:
When I try to print plain text, the system cuts off the top two-thirds
of the first line, and the first several characters on the left.
I have found it necessary to use something like this for my HP printer. It's documented in the CUPS documentation.
'lp -o page-left=36 -o page-top=36'
