[Bug 284730] Re: Printing from KDE4 apps cuts off, non-KDE apps print fine

I just encountered this bug in Fedora 10, KDE 4.1.2 when attempting to use KWrite to print a multi-page
text file to an EPSON C-62 ink-jet printer using CUPS.

n my case, using KWrite and printer defaults, the last line of text, along with the footer are not
printed on each page. That is, when printing a test text file consisting of 69 lines, the header and
52 lines are printed on page 1 (using default monospace/Regular/10pt font). Page two begins
with the header and line 54 (line 53 is missing). No footer is printed on any page.

If I do Ctrl/P->'Printer Properties', and set top and bottom margins, 
the printing can be corrected,  but these settings are not retained between printings.

If I go to Administration->printing->printer->properties I can set margins 
that are preserved, but the bottom margin is ignored. I set it to 100 points
and the last line (52) is still printed at the very bottom of the page and line 53
and footers are missing.

The CUPS printer Test page  (Administration->printing->printer->properties->Print Test)
appears to print correctly.
