Can I control the printer setup parameters from javascript?

[Bill]

I strongly suspect that this is not possible but I'll ask anyway.

I want to print a web page from javascript. I can use window.print( )
no problem but I also want to be able the control margin widths.

I have a script for printing address labels but it is proving
difficult to make the addresses appear in the right places.

Can I also issue a form feed from within the html page? I have tried
to use char(12) but that seems to be ignored

TIA

With a third-party control you can. Visit http://www.meadroid.com/ and
look at:

"ScriptX: now the de facto printing control for the web, developed to
provide absolute control over document printing operations from client and
server computers running Internet Explorer. A subset of ScriptX printing and
script-enhancement functionality is available at no charge and is freely
distributable."
