This doesn't sound like a printable origin problem more like a physical
width and application related issue.
How do you define the width and the resolution?
Maybe you should also research the GPD documentation a bit more to find
out what you can and can't do.

Good question. Why did I start messing around? :)
Two apps are unable to print properly. Their margins end up covering
up parts of the text. (cannot see the rightmost column)
So, I wrote a test which prints a rectangle plus two lines X from
corner to corner. This covered the entire page, as it should.
GetDeviceCaps(DC, HORZRES) returns the correct value.
Then I tried GetDeviceCaps(Printer.Handle, PHYSICALWIDTH) and this
returns a value larger than HORZRES (+310 dots or so).
This is different from MS' OfficeWriter driver.
My driver is based on the DDK's Bitmap sample. I found nothing in the
source files, but those values in the .gpd file made me curious. And
that is when I started playing around. :(
