Hi
I am trying to print a report on Dot Matrix printer and
the format is 8X4
When I send a print Job >> is printing the format of
8x11 and a Tries to change the With and height function
without success

I generate the same report in access and I was not able
to stop the print job after printing the first format 8X4

I right click on the printer object and change the value
of the height >> no success

Can you please give me some direction
 
I suspect you are going to have to seek an up-to-date printer driver for
your version of Windows for this printer. And, I'm sad to say that no
current Windows printer driver is available for some older dot-matrix
printers. I got rid of a perfectly good (but old) dot matrix because I could
not obtain 32-bit Windows drivers for it.

If your OS is Win 2000 or Win XP, try creating a new form (printer form, not
Access) with dimensions of your desired size.
Start > Printers & Faxes > File > Server Properties > Forms tab > Create a
new form.
You might also need to use the generic printer driver instead of the one for
your printer.
