HP Printer Formatting Problems

[Ben Potts <ben.potts@NZDAIRY.CO.NZ>]

Dear All,

I am experiencing problems printing a report to a HP printer. The
output is spread across three pages, the ouput on each new page is in
the position it should be but just on a new page.

The printer definitions and code are as follows

declare-printer HP-definition
        type            = HP
        font            = 5
        point-size      = 11
end-declare

declare-layout default_for_all
        paper-size      = (8,11.5)
        orientation     = portrait
        left-margin     = .25
        top-margin      = 0
        max-columns     = 110
        max-lines       = 66
        char-width      = 7
end-declare

While #i_cnt <= #arr_cnt

    Get #principal $statement_date $payment_date #interest From
Payments(#i_cnt) principal statement_date payment_date interest
    let $pr_statement_date = rtrim($statement_date,' ')
    let $pr_payment_date = rtrim($payment_date,' ')
    print $pr_statement_date (+1,2,0)
    print $pr_payment_date (,17,0)
    let #pay_amount = #principal + #interest
    print #pay_amount (,34,0) edit 999999.99
    print #principal (,48,0) edit 999999.99
    print #interest (,57,0) edit 999.99

    Add 1 to #i_cnt
End-While

With this code I get page breaks in the middle of the output data
items. The new page printing starts at the current position on a the new
page.

I have tried changing point sizes, fonts, max_cols etc and these only
result in the page break occurring at different positions on a line.

I would be grateful for any ideas on what I am doing wrong.

Cheers,
