Also, many printer drivers are set to shrink PDFs to fit, so it may be
coming out at 97% or so... Another thing the end user needs to know
about.
Just in passing, the 1/4 inch you mention is likely to be a hardware
limitation where the paper goes along the paper path or is gripped by
part of the mechanism, not a software limitation.
