Good day gentlemen,

When trying to print on a Okidata ML 420 and Okidata ML320 the printer skips 
a full page between the documents. I'm trying to print on a 8.5x5.5 size 
paper. I've changed the papersize-setting on the printer side to 8.5x5.5, 
but when I check the papersize with oP:papersize() I get 8.5x11, which is 
the size of a  letter page. I've created a printing space of 8.5x5.5 in the 
printer settings on the printer-device, but still when I print the printer 
skips a  full page. It is as if  I'm sending a letter-size page to the 
printer. Can someone please tell me what to do so the printer prints 
continuously?

Thanks

Jay

hi,

how did you "print" ?

SET PRINTER ON
or
XbpPrinter():New()

you meen "build-in" setup of Printer ?

did you  try oPrinter:setupDialog() to "override" settings ?

some Source Code might be a good Idea ...

Good day friends,

Problem resolved. I just changed the build-in papersize setting to 8.5 x 5.5 
and in the printer properties device settings I've changed the form size to 
'Oki'. Thanks for the support guys and sorry for being so unclear.

Regards

Jay
