    This is one of those questions that I've always wanted to ask but
usually forgot to :-)
    
    I've tried numerous time to use preferences to do ANY text formatting
on my EpsonXold printer with absolutely no luck. It would be REALLY nice to
be able to set a left margin so as to allow for binding. The only thing that
seems to work for me is the LPI setting i.e. 6 or 8 Lines Per Inch. Anybody
know about this ??

This is probably a really dumb question, but does the "Left Offset"
value in printer preferences do anything?  I attempted to get a printout to
be offset enough for some pre-punched paper, but nothing I tried seemed
to work.

	Thanks for any help!
