Hi Tracy,

I don't have the dot matrix printer however printing to Epson Inkject works fine using your code.

I can print normally to the printer in VFP or WORD UNTIL I print using the new papersize. Once I do that, from that point on, no matter what papersize I choose (even letter) it prompts for a filename to print to. Even printing a test page prints to a file after the first time I use the new papersize.
