Problem

Symptoms: If the customer uses paper sizes created by WP in the QMS PS 810 driver, everything works fine. When they create a paper size of 7.9" x 12.4" (Portrait, Initially Present, Manual feed), the margins will not hold. When the customer changes the margins to .8", it prints at 3.8". When the margins are changed to .5" it prints at 3.5", etc. The customer stated they had similar problems with WP 5.0. It is possible to solve the problem by putting in an Up offset of 3" and another to move it to the Left by .1". Solutions: This is working correctly because WP sets up the paper size within the driver. Postscript supports the following sizes: Legal, A4, Letter, 11 X 17, and A3. The paper size the customer has defined is not a supported size and thus it will default to another paper size in the printer which is positioned in a different location in the printer. An offset would tell the printer where to set the starting position to print correctly.
