In landscape the cropping takes place on the left (short) edge, not the top of the page. > Does the same happen with other apps? browser, emacs, gimp (just make > a simple line drawing), pdf display, image viewer, ...?

Can you > send a plain text file to the printer with lp? I sent a page with Chromium in landscape, it cropped the left hand short edge too. PDF readers print with cropped top, in portrait. I sent a txt file with 'lpr -o fit-to-page' in portrait and the same cropping on the top of the page happens. So it is not application specific, but page orientation specific. Could it be something has gone wrong with the rollers? This is a brand new printer! I'll try to print a page with MSWindows tomorrow, if only to prove if this is a cups problem or not.
