How to set the paper height to 6 inches in VB6

[pratik.best]

Hi,
I am creating a software for a school. They are using dot matrix
printer and have preprinted stationary. Now the paper size is 6
inches, and they are using tractor feed. How can I stop the printer
after 6 inches, instead of regular 12 inch size of Fanfold paper.

Wrong newsgroup. You need the one for "classic" VB, and not Visual
Basic .Net.

The newsgroup you need is comp.lang.basic.visual.misc

You are right but I found so many discussions in this group concerning
VB6 and besides that I would be happy to learn same technique in
VB.net too.
If you can help you are welcome.

You are right but I found so many discussions in this group
concerning VB6

If you saw any mention of VB6 in this newsgroup, it was surely
followed by a reply similar to mine, or it was asking something to the
effect of "I am updating an outdated VB6 project and ...." I will not,
and neither should others, answer a "classic" VB question in this
newsgroup. Doing so will just clutter up the archives and make
finding .Net answers much more difficult.

besides that I would be happy to learn same technique in
VB.net too.

Now I will help you in regard to this question. Read the following:

After reading the link in it's entirety, if you still need help
setting the printer margins in .Net, please let us know and we'll try
to help further.

Hi,
I understand what you say. I have already been using VB.net for last 3
years. The thing I want to know is how to stop the paper after
printing six inches in tractor feed mode, because the standard paper
size is either Letter or A4. Please give the .net option for it.
