Print margin adjustment - SOLVED - sort of

I found a work-around for this issue.

When printing via `lpr`, I can use `pr file.name | lpr` and the last line of
each page is no longer missing. `pr` has a variety of options, page length
for example, but the default options did the trick for me.

When printing from emacs I found a margin adjustment. I found it under the
Top level customization group/Postscript/Ps Print/Vertical/Ps Bottom Margin.
I set it to 54. The variable in my .emacs initialization file is
'ps-bottom-margin 54'. Now I get my source code printed with syntax
highlighting.

I'm sure there are other work-arounds but this works for me. Remarkably,
several other list-archives I searched had this same problem but no one was
kind enough to post a solution. Now this list has one.

I have a problem when I print. The printable area for my printer stops
about 11/16" from the bottom of the page but my system thinks it stops
1/2" from the bottom - effectively omitting the last line of each page.
This problem occurs every time I print except when I'm using an app that
has margin adjustments available.

I'm using RedHat 8, LPRng 3.8.9, my printer is a hp697c accessed via
samba.

Does anyone know if this adjustment is even possible? I'd appreciate a
nudge in the right direction, I've already searched through the lp* man
pages, and the printcap man page but nothing caught my eye.

Thx,
Bart
