DM report

I have a request from a costumer that's a bit stupid but what can I do... He wants his DotMatrix report to print only until the end of the report, and the printer to stop there and not to pull the whole page out, so he wouldn't have to manually adjust the page so it can be torn out right under the end of the report. Is it possible? Or, for first, did you understand what I was talking about, because I am not so sure about my English?

But your problem doesn't seem to be related to FR at all.
My theory is that any document sent from any app would make your printer to move the paper out so it can be ripped.
I suppose at the end of any printing job the spooler application (in this case the Windows Spooler service) would send an End of Document / End of Print Job command to the printer, making it behave like that by default, and there's nothing you can do on the application side about it.
If I were you, I would instead try to find this solution in the printer settings, go to your printer's configuration in the control panel and see if there is any setting there that might be related to that. Anything with the word 'auto' might be related, like 'auto-feed'. If you have the time, try every single setting individually.
An exception may be if the printer is very old.
DO NOT reverse feed when using labels!
Is there anyway to do that programatically?
