>>Hi All,
>>We want to use a dot matrix printer to print labels on continuous fan-fold paper. We can't get the label wizard or label designer to treat each label as a fixed-height item. That is, VFP wants to print out 8 (in this case), shift down 1/4 inch, then print the next 8.
>>There is no page footer added in the label designer AFAIK. Is there a place to define the height of the page as 1.375" so that each label positions correctly? Or is there a way to prevent the shift that seems to automatically occur every 11 inches?
>>Hope someone sees what we're missing here.
>>TIA
Hi Barbara,
The default prtr is the dot matrix, and it prints 1st 8 labels OK. The label preview shows 8 labels at a time, implying that it thinks that the labels should "Sheet Feed" to 11 inch paper. I can't find any printer or label design setting that can change the paper height size to 1.375". Can you tell me how to do that?
Many thanks for your reply.
Bill
