hi, i am after a solution for the following issue i have. My iReport (version 1.2.5) form prints on a invoice on a dot matrix printer. The problem is that when it finish printing, the page stays where it is and the user needs to push a button on the printer to advance the page so that it can be torn off and given to the customer. Is there anyway of forcing the page to be automatically advanced so that user does not need to do it manually. It gets to be a real pain when there are many people waiting for their invoices. Thanks Tony
