I am using PDFSharp (version 1.32.3057) to create a document that is meant to be printed on sheets of self adhesive labels. I can get the labels to line up correctly on one printer but when I print the same document on a different printer (both HP but one is a LaserJet and the other an InkJet) the labels are shifted slightly and do not line up. I am printing the document in landscape mode, if that makes any difference. I understand not all printers are physically capable of printing all the way to the edge of the page but that doesn't appear to be the issue. What appears to be happening is the origin of the page for one of the printers (not sure which is wrong) isn't located at the actual top-left corner of the page. Is there any way to have a 15 point margin fall in exactly the same place on multiple printers? |

Hi! Create a PDF page with a horizontal line e.g. 20 mm from the top and a vertical line e.g. 20 mm from left. Print it on both printers and see which one is correct. This will also tell you which correction factors you may need for each printer. I do not think this can be "calibrated" in the printer menu, the paper feeder, or the printer driver settings. Thus allowing individual correction factors in your software might be the best |
