Printing longer than 21 cm receipts.
Hello Experts
I am printing a receipt using a visual c sharp and an EPSON thermal POS printer.
In order to print the logo, I am using the following lines that work just fine.
Bitmap bm1 = new Bitmap(pictureBox1.Width, pictureBox1.Height);
pictureBox1.DrawToBitmap(b
e.Graphics.DrawImage(bm1, hx, hy, wi, he);
bm1.Dispose();
And because I used an image
I continue printing each line of text as an image
as follows.
// text
hy += (he+s2);wi = 300; he = 20;
Bitmap tit1 = new Bitmap(wi,he);
pictureBox5.DrawToBitmap(t
e.Graphics.DrawImage(tit1,
tit1.Dispose();
The thing is most of the time I need to print several items and the printing is longer than the height of A4 paper size.
my printing is being truncated when the limit is reached.
How can I make receipts longer than the height of A4 ?
Regards,

Yes,
I am printing receipts that can have around 100 items sold.
this means that 29.7 cm is too little, my printing stops there.
USING Epson thermal printer.
I need to be able to print receipts at least 100 cm long.
please let me know if you need more details

POS Printers don't use sheets of paper but a roll of thermal paper https://epson.ca/For-Work/Printers/POS/TM-T88V-POS-Receipt-Printer/p/C31CA85084
One normally prints the header/Logo as a picture and the rest as lines of text. At the end you send a command that activates the cutter or the clerk rips off the receipt.
