I am running windows 2000 pro and Access 2002, using an Epson LQ570+ ESC/P 2 dot-matrix printer.
The windows 2000 driver does not allow user-defined page sizes. When printing a single 1" label, the printer advances the whole page once printing is finished. I can manually put the sheet back to the beginning of the next label, and I have found the k-base article on printing multiple labels, but these do not address this issue. Resetting or refeeding dozens of times per day doesn't strike me as 21st century technology.
Is there a way to send raw data to the printer? You know, "print this line, advance one line, now advance one more..." You would think that the ability to define your own pages or print straight to the printer would be basic...
