Problem: Unwanted Paper feed after printing.

Hello anyone,
I am printing a pre-printed continue paper on dot-matrix printer using
vb.net winform.
For printing I am creating custom size paper and selecting the same for
printing. Everything is going fine on first page but after printing
first page it feed some extra paper (3cm paper). So on 3rd page again
3cm mean total 6 cm extra...So its changing all the location where I
have to print.
Can anyone help me out from this?

Thanks
Sukh.

Can you test from MSDOS? It might be the printer that is doing this - look
for its set-up menu and see if page skip is set.

Which make/model?

Usually there is a button you push to get into the menu mode. Once there you
can print out and change the current settings on the printer.

No, if you are using the proper driver that isn't the problem. Either the
printer is doing it (unlikely) or it is the program that is the problem.
Some dot matrix printers have a hex dump mode which lets you see what is
going to the printer, however you may get far too much output if you select
that.

where i chk this hex dump mode??

You'll need the printer manual for that. Usually you hold one or two buttons
down while powering up the printer.
