I just hooked up a receipt printer for the obvious reason. (FWIW, the printer is an Epson TM-U200 series).

What I would like to know is, am I now going to have to *hand code* all output to this type of printer? There are no Win95 drivers for it. I have set it up as a Generic text printer connected to Com2 and defined a custom paper size of 3 inches with continuous feed [no page break].

The report designer is good for a test, but leaves MUCH to be desired. You can read everything, but it scrolls about 12 inches too much paper at the end. And does not auto-cut the paper.

Anyone with experience in this? Hints? Tips? Traps?

TIA!
