Hello Dmitry.
If you are filling in pre-printed forms and want to have 100% control over the printing process you can try another thing, specially when you have a dot matrix and want Text mode.
If this is your situation, we solved this issue in order to print a 7" form and we don't depend on printer drivers or paper sizes.
Try this in your printing procedure:
** -----------------------------------------------
set device to print
??? " " && bypasses the printer driver and sends data
&& directly to the printer.
&& See the help for ??? and PROW() commands
@ prow() + 1, 1 say " "
@ prow() + 1, 20 say alltrim(cCompany)
@ prow() + 1, 20 say Date()
@ prow() + 5 say " "
** Add any VFP commands you need to print your form: IF, CASE, etc.
** Close printer
set device to screen
** --------------------------------------
>I need to design a report which will print on a continuous pin-fed paper where each page is 1/3 of regular 11" paper.
