Problem

Symptoms: The user attempted to set a top margin of .25" and the Epson LQ-2550 printed the text on top of itself. A minimum top margin was not indicated and text adjustments are 0". Solutions: On newer Epson models, most users will be taking advantage of the built-in auto feed/paper parking feature (whether they know it or not), and the printer actually does place the print head .45" below top-of-form when they do. So, as long as they don't use small top margins the customer is better off this way. However, if they do go less than .45" for top margin, they will have to use a Text Adjustment. They will have to go down .45" in their form definition to get WP to cancel out the Bias. (Jeff said that in 5.0, WP used EITHER the Bias OR the form offset. In 5.1, the developers use a scheme which adds the two together, so one can CANCEL the other, rather than be REPLACED by it.
