Are you sure that linux is set up for A4 format (or the reverse letter
size).
I had this problem myself and all I had to do was modify the printcap for
the appropriate page size (man printcap).
By default my output was arriving as Euro A4 format instead of letter.

Subject: Hp print anomoly
I keep meaning to find the time to ask this so here goes.
We have an HP 5Si with a jet direct card in it. Our Samba server has
this printer set up as the default printer.
I can print to the HP by creating a network printer from the window
boxes (both 98 and NT) with absolutly no problems but when I print man
pages from the server or any of the Linux boxes, the paging is off. A
whole page does not fit onto a printed page and there is no page break
after the footer of the page. I think I selected the the HP4 printer in
the printtool when I set it up.
What is up? Is this the result of the printcap selected by the
printtool. I have never had to setone up or modify one. I am of the
GUI linux generation having got my first tast of linux with redhat 4.5 I
think it was.
This is obviously not a show stopper but it is kind of irritating. Any
help greatly appreciated.
Bret
