From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.72 [en] (WinNT; U) BuildID: 2000051720 When printing pages to a postscript printer, the printed page only gets a very small margin, approximately 3/16 of an inch, whereas Communicator 4.72 is about 9/16 of an inch. I don't see any way to configure this. In addition, the printed page has none of the usual headers and footers I'm used to with Communicator on Windows, being the address of the page (header) and the page number and date (footer). This isn't as important as the margins. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. View a page. 2. Print a page. 3. View the results. Actual Results: Printed pages have a very small margin (making it difficult to bind). Expected Results: The pages should have a reasonable margin (~ .5 inch).

You can set the margins.. are you saying you want the default set to a larger margin?

If there is some way to set the printing margins, I missed it. How do you do that? Even if there is a way to do this, I think the default margins should be closer to what you get with NS4.x (unless there was some standard that NS4.x was violating.
This is a page setup item.. the printing can support this currently.. just no way to set it. Giving this to Don M for disposition.

margins show up for linux print... dialog, on WinNT I just get the native print dialog. Do we need a page setup dialog for Win32 to do this? It would be good to solve this in an XP way.

bug 42817, then?
yes, I think this is part of xp page setup, marking dup of 42817. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 42817 ***
