Re: Re: Reverse-engineering CD printing on the Epson R300

Hi,
        The patch does indeed work, allowing printing from the
plugin.  The alignment is about 3/4" too far left and about 1/2" too far
up.  I tried changing to the 399, 394 as you suggested, but this did not
appear to change the alignment.  I also note that if I try to print only
in the top half of the CD, the CD feeds, but nothing at all gets
printed.

I was wondering how I might add A4 to the list of allowable page sizes
for the CD printing.  Using A4 page size appears to be what Epson
recommends to developers for CD printing, as per the following document:
http://www.epsondevelopers.com/documents/CDDVDTemplate.pdf
The way the plugin works, with the custom page sizes, is fine, but for
applications printing through the cups driver, making A4 templates may
be the easiest way to go.

Thanks!
Ken
