GS to Xerox 4050

Hi,

        I'm trying to use GhostScript to print PostScript on our 
Xerox 4050 LPS.   This thing is little brother to the old 9700,
and you can grow upwardly to things like a 4090.   These are fast,
high-volume laser printers.   Vendor solutions for PostScript don't
work the way I'd like,  thus the attempt to use GS.

        It works!   But the Xerox rasterizes the page lengthwise.
So when I print something,  the top of the page is chopped off and
there's wasted white space on the right.   In taking apart the PBM
driver  (which is what I'm using right now to dump bitmaps),  I don't
see any place where I can change the default CTM based on the device.
Is there some place in the driver code where one might change the
default CTM for odd rasters?   (orientation and offset)

        Thanks!
