Many/most printers cannot print within a certain margin from the page edges (usually about 1/8 to 1/4 inch) so it sounds like the current page setup for the default Windows printer is doing that. At any rate, compare the Mac page setup dialog with the one on Windows to see if you can spot differences.

Thanks.

I set the printPaperSize to « 595,842" and it’s ok now.
