[comp.sys.mac.hardware] Laserwriter IInt Diablo mode - why the narrow page?

  Does anyone know how to change the line length of a Laserwriter II NT in
Diablo mode? This Laserwriter currently prints only 74 characters on a line and
is a problem when it is printing files with lines that have been formatted for
80 columns. Is there some control code (Diablo or Postscript) to adjust the
printable page so that it starts more to the left of the paper, thus allowing
for 80 columns? Any information would be appreciated, even if it is not
possible to change the margin settings.

thanks
