Hi Beth,
 We just went this route a few months ago.

Here is what I have for the meal labels that prevented the creep. Used
in the footnotes

AL BEFORE.PRINT D(27)_"&l6D"^!
AL START D(27)_"&16D"^!

I had more trouble with creeping for the nourishment labels. 

I used this in my footnote

AL BEFORE.PRINT D(27)_"&16D"^!
AL START D(27)_"&16D"^!
AL HR D(27)_"&16D"^!

I also put a Line check in on the first line - a HP line. Didn't use a
HP line on the meal labels so I added it specifically for this reason.

LC=D(27)_"&l6D"^!,""




Hello, 
We are switching out a DOT matrix label printer for a new laser jet in
our dietary department and the dietary labels (custom NPR reports) now
do not print correctly. On the Avery 5366 labels they start too high on
the page so that margins are off. A patient label will begin on one
label and then finish on the one below it. 

Is there anyone else using Laser Printers to print diet and nourishment
labels, and if so are you passing printer control language (PCL)
embedded code via a footnote or macro to tell the printer what to print
where?

If you are not passing printer control language in your NPR report, what
type of printer are you using and what size are your labels?

Thanks in advance,
