And the "New Page" box is not checked? hmmm...
Can you print to a laser printer from the same machine? What happens if you leave the report exactly like it is and print to a laser printer?
Also, you might try to remove printer specific information from the report.

>>All I put in the foot is summary information such as sub total, tax and grand total. I'm not setting the length of the receipt as it is dynamic based on the number of items on it. If I print the summary as an extension of the detail it works fine, the receipt length is dynamic and all is fine. But when I add it on the footer, it seems to have a hard coded length and wants to print the footer at the bottom of the receipt (report).
