Change Form Width And Length In VB For Line Printer

[nightsurfer1]

Hi

I am trying to change the the form length to 8.5 and the form width to 11 on a Tally T6215 Line Printer. The printer can print up to 14 7/8 by 11 so I know the width is not the problem. If I just print to the printer using standard fan fold and don't change anything with code, the report prints fine but the next one will be off. If I use the printer.papersize and set it for 256 (User defined) and pass it printer.Height = 11 and Printer.Lenght = 8.5, the height will be fine but the length gets cut to 8.5. I have tried everything I can think of. Help!

What does that mean?
Does it get progressively worse with each page?

That may simply get you the current 'user-defined-page' for that printer.
