Never a big user of VFP reports and even less so for labels.

I need to print standard Avery tractor-feed labels (15/16" x 3.5") to a dot-matrix printer.
If the user specifies 3 labels to be printed, it should print the 3 labels and then stop any further printer action.

When printing, say, 3 labels the thing insists on "ejecting", apparently to the basic 8 1/2" mark.
There is no NOEJECT (or NOPAGEEJECT) clause on the "LABEL FORM..." command.

The "Page format" indicates a full page and I see no way to change that to represent a single label.

What is the recommended way to solve this problem, to avoid a waste of labels?

Thanks in advance
