Getting rid of FormFeed at end of print
Trying to set up a very old matrix printer (OKI ML320) to print some labels from a Win7 Pro machine. Communication with printer is fine, using IBM Graphics printer emulation and corresponding driver.
What messes up the whole thing is that Windows seems to add a FormFeed command at the end of every print. This causes the printer to skip a lot of labels after the first one is printed correctly. Setting a shorter page length on the printer isn't possible (shortest is 3 in. while label is 1.5 in.
So - is there a way to stop Win7 from sending that FormFeed command?
P.S.
Yes, I know that this is a printer for the museum, but it would be great to make it work....
