printing with lpr and epdfview: page margins?

Hi all,

I need to print some PDF documents with a Samsung Ml-2510 b&w laser printer. I have the splix drivers. I configured the printer with CUPS.

- If I open the PDF with epdfview and print it, everything is ok.

- If I print it through lpr + options, the page margins are wrong and some lines (bottom margin) are not visible on the hardcopy.

Both epdfview and lpr are supposed to use CUPS to print things, so why do they produce different results?

I already tried to manage some CUPS options, e.g. /etc/cups/ppd/<myppd.ppd> and to set the margins and text density explicitely with lpoptions, but lpr still does not change anything.

Is anyone else experiencing this issue? Has anyone solved it somehow?
