[rescue] closing in on my SPARCprinter problem

Problem is print-file images sent from Cups from a networked machine
shift slightly up and to the right in successive pages. this began about
a year ago, but since I haven't had any big print jobs which needed to
be done on the machine, I'd let problem go.

So today I tried a bunch of things.B  I still have NewsPrint on the
SPARC10 and it prints fine without this problem. If I print from
FrameMaker on the 10, using the Ghostscript processor, it too works fine.

So problem must be something that has happened in Cups in a recent
"improvement"B  Advice on subject is my problem is a symptom of a page
size issue.B  My plan is to change the pagesize parameters in my PPD file
and see what effect this has.

If anyone has any other ideas, I'd be happy to try them.
