In Access 97 I have a simple form that I print onto a pre-
printed multi-page paper, custom size, with an Epson FX-
2180 dot matrix printer. After printing certain records
(repeatable for the records that exhibit this) when I load
the next paper (auto load) it adds an extra line (blank)
to the top of the next printed page. In examining the
records that exhibit this I can not find any common
issues. Some records have more length actually printed,
some have different ending character. Any ideas ?
 
Try setting the printable paper size to 8.5 X 14 you will
n ot have to put that size papre in the printer just
tell the report page setup that you are using that size
paper. I had the same thind happen to me and this is how
I fixed it reply back to this thread if it works
 
Generally, I would design Reports for printing as I have more control on
printing a Report (Forms are designed for viewing on-screen).

You can quickly start a Report Design based on your Form: In the "Forms"
tab of your Database Containers window, right-click on your Form and select
"Save As ..." and then change the argument to "Report". After this, you can
open the Report in the Design and modify the printing specs.
 
That made the problem worse, so must be related, maybe I
need to make it be slightly smaller than actual ?
