Never use the wierd TeX registers \voffset and \hoffset, these are messy
and make dvi drivers crazy.

Now what will you achieve. First, when designing a layout, say
\showframe.

When you want to change the document layout dimensions, use
\setuplayout.

When you want to get rid of head/foot lines, use \setupheader[state=..],
also available when you use \startstandardmakeup[headerstate=none] (for
example).

Put all setups before \starttext (not needed, but prefered).

More easy (no hardcoded numbers) 

  \startstandardmakeup[headerstate=none]

(BEWARE: I just say that in mult-con.tex I say headerstatus instead of
headerstate, please change this type and regenerate a format! Else, for
the moment say:

  headerstatus=none % next release this will be corrected

Sorry for the inconvenience.
