Question Print Options (margins specifically)

So I don't print much from my mac, thats because I've got a network printer (plugged into a WinXP box). It's an HP. And I sumitted a question here to get it working. It's a HP DeskJet 5440.

I recently started printing from my iBook and can't find anywhere to set the margins in the Print dialog (or the Page Setup window where I recently found the landscape option.)

Mainly I'm talking about printing from firefox, but also from other programs liek tacoHTMLedit.

Thanks for any help,
Chris

DeltaMac will become famous soon enough
Margin settings are not normally supplied by the print dialog. This is provided by specific apps, and sometimes will be an addition to the standard print dialog. The app simply prints whatever you see, which could mean several pages for an 'extended' page in a browser, for example.
You can change the 'Paper Size' through Page Setup under the File menu. This is not really margins, but can serve the same purpose by providing a custom page size for your own purposes.
