This is a problem of the browsers, as they can find out about the
unprintable margins of the printer by means of the CUPS API. The CUPS
API gives access to the complete content of the PPD file and the PPD
contains the margin info. So this bug has to be assigned to both the
printing part of the Gecko engine and the printing part of Konqueror.

The bug is not in CUPS, CUPS has everything to tell the apps how big the
unprintable margins of each configured printer are.
