SO WHEEVRE I I SEND A PRINTER.ENDDOC IT SHLD STOP AT THE PAGE LENGTH SPECIFIED I CAN'Y USE THAT OPEN FILE METHOD BCZ THE TEXT WHICH I WANT TO PRINT IN THAT IN DIFF FONT AN DIF I USE THIS METHOD IT WILL PRINT THE DATA IN THE DEFAULT FONT.
You could bypass the Printer Object and Print Directly to the Printer Port, eg.
Code:Dim iFile As Integer
iFile = FreeFile
Open "LPT1:" For Output As iFile
Print #iFile, "Line of Printed Text"
Close iFile
