I¹m running into a printing inconsistency between Mac & Win printing with RB
5.5.5. When I print from my application on Windows using a connected NEC
SuperScript 870 Laser Printer, I get the expected result. When I print from
my application on Mac OSX 10.3.9 using the same NEC SuperScript 870 via
Samba, it prints as if there are no printer margins (starting at the
Top,Left of the paper, not imaging area). When I print from my application
on Mac OSX 10.3.9 using a connected Stylewriter2400, I get no print margins.
When I print from my application on Windows using the same Stylewriter2400
via Samba, I get no top margin, and a left margin twice the size defined. I
have tested both printers with other applications, and do not see this
problem. 

 

When I check the margin information in the debugger, the margin information
looks correct. And the graphics object created by the OpenPrinter() is the
right width and height, but the actual print out is incorrect.

 

Is there something I am missing?

 

Thanks,

 

Bob
