I see from your ip name you're Irish.  I'm wondering if you should have
your paper size set to European *A4 rather than American *LETTER.  If that
is the case, there is also a 'corrected' Workstation Customisation object
for the HP printer descriptions I could send on to you.

Hi,

I have a number of HP 2100 network laser printers as IP printers set up on
our AS400 using the following setup parameters...

The problem that I have is that I have recently configured a HP2200
network laser printer using the same configuration and I am having
problems with how the pages are being printed.  The output is onto a pre
printed form which should start printing on about the 4th line of the page
but no matter what settings I change the output is being printed onto the
1st line of the page even if the print program is changed.  When I hang
the printer off of a pc and create a session in client access for the
printer and then print to it the output is correct.  Is there something
that I am missing here about IP printer setep.  We are on V4R5...
