The following is copied from an answer by Jon Wilshusen yesterday, message 209994:

>Boy... have I been in your situation before. I'm using a Lexmark 2890 (9 pin Dot matrix) I use it to print 15/16 X 3.50 Labels, 2 at a time. I set the
printer driver to "Epson Compatible 9 pin" and WaLa, it makes a darn nice label printer. I don't see why it wouldn't work for your situation.

It prints on the label fine, but then it automatically advances the page I'm guessing approx 10-11". The printer is a Panasonic KX P1150 Dot Matrix Printer. Is there some type of printer codes I need to send to the printer to keep it from moving up automatically? I was looking at the manual, and it shows the option of adjusting the page to either 8", 11", and I believe 12", no user defined sizes. Is there a way to keep this from moving up an entire page?
