 -- Configuration Setting: Medium: NAME DIMENSIONS
     Define the medium NAME to have the DIMENSIONS (in PostScript
     points, i.e., 1/72 of inch).

     There are two formats supported:

     long
          in which you must give both the size of the whole sheet, and
          the size of the printable area:
               # A4 for Desk Jets
               #      NAME     W      H     LLX   LLY   URX    URY
               Medium: A4dj    595    842    24    50    571    818

          where WxH are the dimension of the sheet, and the four other
          stand for lower left x and y, upper right x and y.

     short
          in which a surrounding margin of 24 points is used
               # A4
               #      NAME     W      H
               Medium: A4      595    842

          is the same as

               # A4
               #      NAME     W      H
               Medium: A4      595    842    24    24    571    818
