Emacs ps-print-buffer omits a line
Just a minor problem I've experienced with printing from Emacs. Perhaps I've
misconfigured, please let me know if so. Details
below. Thanks.

Here is the problem:
The default ps-font-size is pretty small at 8.5 points portrait. So I
increased it to 10 - much nicer. Except that on page 1/2, line 62 is omitted
(all but a thin slice along the top). Page 2/2 begins with line 63.
A workaround:
A couple of changes to defaults have fixed it for me: ps-header-lines from 2
to 1 and ps-header-offset from 28.346456692913385 to 14. This prints 64 lines
on page 1 and page 2 starts at line 65 - much better.
