I know this is the software place, but, I am trying to print checks that are approx 3/4 size of paper. It prints then advances to the end of the normal size of paper. The Win XP driver doesn't have "User defined size" to choose in the properties. Win 2000 does! Any suggestions? Or do I print Checks 1 at a time? I've also checked other Dot printers, and the Oki I chose didn't have that option either.
 
You might try the newest drivers they have but, XP drivers are famous for having less funtionality than earlier OS's. They admit it, yet do nothing about it.

I just found out how to config the custom paper sizes! Very different from the norm!
From: "Settings"----"Printers and Faxes"----Highlight the printer----"File"-----"Server Properties"-----"Forms"----Check the box----"Create a new form"-----Wah Lah....Enter the custom size you want....Then select a name you want for that size...ie, Checks....press.."Save"
All done, close out.
That "Checks" selection should now be available from your pull down in you print set-up menu of your application. hmmmmmmmm go figure.
