Hello,

Situation: We have some QMS Colorscript 100. We are using
		   System 6.0.5 with the LaserWriter Drivers 6.0.1

Problem:   The ColorScript 100 has an print area that is
		   smaller than that of the LaserWriters.  For example,
there is at least 1.25 " unusable at the bottom of each 8.5" x 11"
page.  This result in clipped graphics if we are not
very carefull.

Wishes:    What I would like to do is patch a copy
           of the LaserWriter so it would know the
correct size of the usable area of the page.  This would
let my applications know (after doing a page setup) where
the borders are.  So, where are the resources that contain
this information so I can add my own paper sizes ?
Anybody has other suggestions ?  How do people with
ColorScript 100 live with this problem ?

      Thanks in advance.
