printing to a dot matrix printer

[bwolfsohn]

I'm looking into printing form forms to a dot matrix printer (oki 320/420), and i remember some routines that printed directly to the printer, bypassing the windows printer driver, but i haven't been able to locate those in my history/code.

I need to be able to print to a 3.5 inch form, but that paper size isn't available as a form size in the windows printer driver.

any suggestions from out of the memory banks ??

Found a driver from okidata that let's us add custom form sizes.

Look at DCPRINT SIZE..... this will set the size based on number of lines and length. Consider dcprint font in the process. I use this on 1" x 3" labels......The label size is set in the printer driver.
I have a preprinted form 8" x 7" & 8" x 11" in my program.
The form size is set in the printer driver.
