Re: [Omniprint-user] Problem with HP-LaserJet_III

[Terry B. <te...@be...>]

Hi Mark,

Success !
The current CVS tree builds, installs and the printer prints !
Thanks for the help.
One little thing remains: The printed page is not aligned correctly.
I am using the command:  gs -sDEVICE=omni -sDeviceName="HP_LaserJet_III"
-sproperties="form=FORM_A4" -r300x300 -sOutputFile=out.lj -sPAPERSIZE=a4
-q -

I have tried to change the hardCopyCap values in "HP LaserJet III
Forms.xml". These don't
seem to have any effect. (Also what units are these in, the documentation
says hundreths of mm
but the values in the file are in the order 4000-9000 which does not seem
to make much sense.)
Any pointers ?

Cheers

Terry

PS: The use of spaces in file names is awkward for us old time command
line users ! and also
casues problems when writing automated scripts :(.
