A line is missing between the pages.
How do I fix this?
When I print a CUPS test page, the margins are in the range 0.1 to 0.2 inch.
vim's default printer options are 5% for the top and bottom margins.
That shouldn't be a problem.  Something seems to be shifting things down.
What am I missing?

You might want to take a look at:

 http://vimdoc.sourceforge.net/htmldoc/print.html

or specifically at:

 http://vimdoc.sourceforge.net/htmldoc/print.html#popt-option

I did.

looking at the margin settings that can be controlled via the popt-opt settings in your .vimrc or .gvimrc file.

The first time I looked I missed the A4 vs. letter stuff.

gvim's printing is better now.
set popt=paper:letter

I believe that vim will created a postscript file when used on a Linux system....
