Custom Paper

edited March 2004 in General
I?m build a report using delphi 6 and Report Builder 7.03 to print in Epson
LX-300 (dot matrix). I have a size paper different (custom) width 216 and
Height 219. I put this information in option PageSetup/PaperSize with
properties PaperSize = Custom and width 216 and Height 219. When i show this
report in Preview is correct, but if send to printer the height of paper is
biggest that 219. After of the first page (Second Page) the header (top)
start in the middle of paper. I would like know if the configuration of
printer (Driver of Windows)
can change this configuration made in Report Builder.

How i can solve this problem?

Thank for response

    Hi Mauri,

    Be sure that your paper does in fact have a height of 219. If this is too
    large, you may get wrong results. Also, if you print to a different
    printer, do you still get the same results. Dot Matrix printers are
    definitely the most dificult to get working smoothly with text positioning
    and paper sizes. You may have to manually try some different measurements
    until you find one that gives you the output you need.
