Rune,
I am glad that you are able to install the driver again.

 

What is it you actually want to accomplish?

Do you have an A4 / Ltr size printer but want to change the Printable
Origin?

Can you please explain?

 

\Manfred

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?)
