[Dx4win] QSL Label Stock

[Garry Shapiro]

Cesar,

You should point out that the "creep" issue in many printers can be due 
to an image size that is not quite "on target" and this makes the image 
progressively more offset vertically.

Many printers do not have this problem. For example, I used to have to 
compensate for this with my now-gone HP LJ4M laser and later with an HP 
All-in-one inkjet but my current Lexmark all-in-one printer is spot 
on/no problem and so have been its Lexmark predecessors.
