Actually, I am doing that right now!
Here is what I have...and I think I am close.
I put 4 PCC in the label Page Header, all at the very top, left to right...
reset <27 64>   8 lines per inch <27 48>   page length <27 67 36>    reverse 
line feed <27 106 54>
 
I made the "position" of the Page Header 0.0001 (is that ok since the printer 
control codes should not take up any space?
 
The problem I am still having, is trying to get the paper to advance to the top 
of the next page after the printing is done.
If I had a FormFeed to the Page Footer, or to the lower right hand corner of 
the details line, I thought it should work, but it does not work for me. Rbase 
seems to be reading (or at least acting on) the Form Feed before I even start 
printing.
 
What am I doing wrong?
I think this should be easy....all I am trying to do is generate a series of 
reports with the exact same page lenght.....ie a Label!

Try making it a label instead of a report
