So I do not understand printing from kmail, regardless if I use HTML-preview 
or not, the output is at about fontsize 7 -difficult to read.
Must be some other issue then. 

BTW http://www.kde.org prints fine, while on http://www.oracle.com some chars 
are cut off at the rigth side.
I use CUPS 1.1.7
It migth well be a problem of margins, I have to investigate if someone 
thinks that this could be the reason. My left margin is about 1.4 cm. I print 
on a HPLaserjet 4
