Summary:
PROBLEM ID: WIN9105006
SYMPTOMS
When the EPSON9.DRV driver is installed under Windows version 3.0
and an application calls the TextOut() function specifying
coordinates that lie outside the physical page, the text is printed
on the page instead of being clipped.
PROBLEM
The EPSON9.DRV driver should clip the text to the physical page.
RESOLUTION
This problem can be avoided if the application determines the
boundaries of the physical page and clips the output appropriately.
The GETPRINTINGOFFSET and GETPHYSPAGESIZE device driver escapes
provide this information.
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows version
3.0. We are researching this problem and will post new information
here as it becomes available.
For more information on printer escapes, refer to Chapter 12 of the
"Microsoft Windows Software Development Kit Reference Volume 2."
