Re: printer printing info at top and bottom of page

As mentioned you need to disable the banner page. But I wanted to note that I have seen some printers that have the banner page actually set on the printer itself. I have had to go to the web interface of some printers and disable the banner.
"The difference between me and you? I will read the man page." and "Respect the hat." and "You could just do a search on ITRC, you don't need to start a thread on a topic that's been answered 100 times already." Oh, and "What. no points???"
