I will have a look at it. Funny thing is that when i print from
Evolution for instance the margins are ok. And the command of
Evolution is also lpr or at least it says so in the print dialog.
I tried anything i could think of but didn't succeed.
The only thing that i could do was adjust the ppd file manually
and instead of A4{0, 0, ...} i specified an offset for x and y.
The x offset was taken so at least i had my letters on the left
back but the y offset didn't work.
Also, the alignmargins program didn't provide a sollution.
Anyway, i'll have a look at enscript. Thanks for the info
Benedict
