Thanks Manfred,

On a fresh test system, I first installed my printer with the old .gpd
file. Success.

- Uninstall
- removed
   *PrintableOrigin: PAIR(400, 400)
  from one of the forms defined in my .gpd
- tried installing printer again

Failure!

I repeated the procedure (had to remove driver files from server
properties) but this time kept the PrintableOrigin value, and was able
to install the printer again.

What is the correct approach for me? AFAICT PrintableOrigin makes
absolutely no sense for me! :( OTOH defining forms is probably not
what I want in any case... I just want the default to be A4. (or do I?
Is there a user's default that would otherwise be picked?)
