>I've got a client running an accounting system written in VFP6. I'm having issues printing dot matrix checks. The issue is with the size of the form. The checks are 8.5" X 7.00". I created a new form size in the Printers and Faxes dialog in XP. Then assigned this form as the default paper size. Modified the report which in the accounting system interface requires you to save the printer environment. When I run and alignment test everything prints as is should. The problem is when I attempt to print checks from another workstation. When I print the checks it thinks the height of the form is 11.00" not 7.00". I went through the same form size and default paper size settings on this workstation. All of the settings match. If I modify the report from the second workstation however the report size is different even thought the paper size is the custom size I created. It's showing as 11.00" not 7.00". If I change this setting and save the report and printer environment all prints fine. The problem is now it's no longer working for the first machine configured. It now thinks the default height of the form is 11.00". I went from machine to machine all day changing these settings and it only works for the last machine that was used the edit the report. I have checked and rechecked the printer names, form names and drivers on each workstation. What am I overlooking?

Did you think direct print for dot matrix printers? You can easly do that with ? command. It will be faster and easier.
