You stumbled across the difference between "Tall Adjusted" and not "Tall
Adjusted" text on the imagewriter.  This is not a bug.  It occurs in MacWrite
and other applications as well.  The laserwriter has no such option, so
toggling between the two printers will toggle page width (and hence margins)
by about half an inch, depending on whether "Tall Adjusted" was set.
