how to get print size changed


I am new to linux. I have installed suse 9.1 personal to evaluate linux and will then go to a professional edition. Everything is working well except the print size is small. It prints a small page in the upper left hand of a regular letter size sheet of paper. I have a Canon i560 photo printer and have loaded only the drivers that came with it. I have stipulated that it should print U.S. letter size but still the small size page in the upper left. I need help to print out a full page. Do I need to load some drivers from linux or what? Please help. Thank you.

hi dhamle, welcome to lq. it appears that turboprint has a driver for this printer, you can download the free trial version, if it works, you could buy it. you can find turboprint here

http://www.turboprint.de/english.html

the alternative would be try setting it up w/cups and using these reccomendations.

hope that's enough to get you going.
good luck.
