I have a different Epson on FC5 (fresh install, not upgrade) and I
have no problems printing from Abiword, OpenOffice, etc.  Might you
have selected the wrong driver (one that thinks your printer's form
length is different than it is)?  Alternately, did you check the form
before printing (perhaps it defaults to A4 instead of Letter, e.g.)?
