I set the margins to 1/2 inche (36 pixels) in RB and then I draw a rectangle
- two actually
0,0, g.width, g.height

and

margin, margin, g.width-2*margin, g.height-2*margin

I am having a hard time understanding exactly what you expect the above to give you when it is printed especially when I don't see all of the code involved. I don't believe that you fully understand the values that are given from a PrinterSetup object, what they mean, and how to use them. Please explain exactly what you expected to see on the page when you printed the two rectangles above.
