Gimp-print border

I am using gimp 2.0.4 with gimp-print 4.2. Mandrake 10.1 with an hpdeskjet 5550.

Off and on for the past year I have tried to figure out how to change the default margins in gimp-print. I have searched, googled read the archives and have not found a way to change the default margins. I particulary find the .5 left margin troublesome. I have the latest HP driver installed.

I hope there is an easy solution. I have lots of pictures with uneven borders.

Thanks

Gary
