PM was initially designed with Postscript printers in mind, and there have always been short-comings with PCL printers. These short comings seem to be more prevalent on HPs where the page processing is host-based rather than done by the printer itself, as with the HP Color LaserJet 2600n.

See:
* Limitations of Printing from PageMaker to a Non-PostScript Printer <http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/knowledgebase/index.cfm?id=328686>

The work around is to create a PDF and print that instead, as you've pointed out.

I'm still using its predecessor from 1999, the Epson Stylus Photo 1200, which has the same margin problem, but is nevertheless very good for A3 photos even though they drink the ink!
