Printing details

[Charles Trois]

I have an Epson 740 printer with cups on my iMac using YDL 3.0.1.
With Kate (or KDevelop, which gives the same results), I cannot get the
header and footer right.

In the configuring dialog, the header format is given as

    %y              %f              %p

On the printer document, the header is

    date            title

The footer format is

                                    %U

but no footer appears in the print; the last line is clipped horizontally at
14 mm from the bottom, whereas the top and bottom margins are 5 mm.

I should be grateful for some explanations. In particular, how could I get
the page numbers printed?
