Automatic Paper Eject

[ceeyespee]

I have developed a billing software for pharmacy. The bills are printed using dot matrix printer(LQ1070+ ) on 4 inch width continous paper roll as the list of items sold vary from bill to bill. Now the problem. Printer.Print command does a beautiful job of printing the bill fully one at a time. But after printing the bill it ejects a foot long paper. Is it a problem with the printer and is there codes available to stop the ejection after completing print job.

Yes, I do love the Printer.Print method as well...

I have the same method and my printer doe not print additional blank pages. I did some some snooping around and could not find anything. I am posting my results anyway, just in case it is useful to anyone else:

I had such problem once on EPSON LQ300+II printer and but worked all right on EPSON LQ300+ESC P2 so I used the default driver of LQ300+ESC P2 which comes with WindowsXP on the printer EPSON LQ300+II and worked perfectly.

I think you should also try the old driver for that printer or the nearest model driver
