Hello!

I have a HP Business Inkjet 1000 printer.

The properties of the Imageable Area of my printer are:
Page Size: 8.0 x 11.06 in or 203.2 x 281.0 mm
Lower-Left: 0.14 x 0.51 in or 3.4 x 12.8 mm
Upper-Right: 8.14 x 11.57 in or 206.6 x 293.8 mm

With these values I can print a document on paper size of A4 with 
margin lines shown hereinafter

|-----------0.5 cm-------------|
||----------1.0 cm------------||
|||---------1.5 cm-----------|||
|||                          |||
|||                          |||
|||                          |||
....                          ...
|||                          |||
|||                          |||
|||                          |||
|||---------1.5 cm-----------|||
The margin line at 1.0 cm is not showed up.
The margin line at 0.5 cm is not showed up.

but the margin lines at the bottom of the page are not shown up.

I would like to setup CUPS and/or HPIJS so that I get the imageable 
area increased and then I expect to can print my document so I can see the 
margin lines at the bottom of the A4 page, like:

|-----------0.5 cm-------------|
||----------1.0 cm------------||
|||---------1.5 cm-----------|||
|||                          |||
|||                          |||
|||                          |||
....                          ...
|||                          |||
|||                          |||
|||                          |||
|||---------1.5 cm-----------|||
||----------1.0 cm------------||
|-----------0.5 cm-------------|

I try to see any settings in the file
/etc/cups/ppd/Business_Inkjet_1000.ppd

and find lines:
*DefaultImageableArea: A4
*ImageableArea Letter/Letter: "18 36 594 783"
*ImageableArea A4/A4: "9.72 36 585.28 833"
....

I don't know with which values can I change these settings?

Can I setup the CUPS and/or HPIJS to get the imageable area increased?

Any advices is appreciated!
