If you need to manage formfeeds, and are @x,y say (slewing) to the dot matrix - you might check to printer manual and look at those control codes that affect font and page length. Sometimes you need to use the control codes to set the line heigth. Page length controls may be in either lines or inches.
I prefer lines per page. Issuing an EJECT will issue a form feed based on the number of lines per page. The "???" syntax will send control code requests to the printer.

>>>I have a client running a panasonic 2030. Printing a service ticket is very slow. I had him load the generic/text only driver and this help the speed. But I could not control the page break I am print on a form 8.5 x 7. I try using the prompt function and going through properties and setting the custom to 850 x 700 with no luck. So how can I get my app to print quicker.
