I have a Lexmark t522, and installed it using the generic postscript driver.

However, I have a rather strange problem when trying to print on it. The output appears on the page about an inch above where it should, meaning the top part of each page is cut off, and there is a big gap at the bottom of each page.

Does anyone know of any way to fix this? Thank you in advance.

Is your paper size set correctly? You might be printing letter size on A4 or vice versa.

I think that was the problem. I had it working before, and then (for some reason I can't recall) had to uninstall and reinstall the printer in cups, and it "forgot" the paper settings.
