Hi experts in the ether

Trying to print labels from form. Have created label report and queries to select records, either current record or groups by say postcode

Have set up printer with custom label size for tractor feed. Also set report to use same custom size page.

Print-out appears only on every 5th label, as if it still thinks the page size is A4.

Any ideas? Is there a setup I'm missing? Are there do's and dont's in customising page sizes?

Thanks
 
Sorry folks, have resolved this myself.

Tricky balancing of custom page size for printer, unprintable areas, report page size, margins etc.
