Is it possible to get and set paper margins (left,right,top,bottom) of a
printer? If yes, how?

You can "get" the values for the physical printer margins, but I don't think
you can set them.  You can establish your own "logical" margins inside
the physical margins using program logic.

You might search for "Margin" or "GetDeviceCaps" at

Also, Printer Demo #1 might help you:

Remember, the printer needs to have a bit of a margin in order to get the
traction, so it makes sense that the printer will not let the user print on
its entire area.
