How close to the bottom edge do you need to print?  Most laser printers
have an area around the edge of the paper where they physically cannot
print.

I believe there are PCL codes to set the logical margins to zero, but
this will not affect the physical margins.  (Anything outside of the
physical margins will fail to end up on the paper.)

If you can give more specifics, Jim Asman can probably give you the PCL
codes needed.  (Are you using a report or form?  How many lines per
page [or per form] are you using?)
