I'm having a similar problem with installing an old microline 9 Pin printer.
I'm printing 5x1 labels that are continuous. I had it set up for Win98, but
can't get it working right in XP. I created the paper as 5x1 with no margins
and set up the Generic / Text Only driver (which is what I used for 98 also).
My problem is that after each label it skips several lines (thus screwing up
my continuous feed). Are there printer Commands I can enter to forbid it
from feeding up, or is there some other setting I'm missing?
