Leslie,

What kind of printer do you have?

Is there any way to do a form feed (make the printer pass a piece of paper through)?

Les-- WHAT are you trying to print??? Sounds like the data does not include 'carriage returns' or they are not being recognized by the printer. So, maybe the file isn't properly formatted for printing or you don't have the correct 'driver' for your particular printer. If you wish, attach one of your files to an email and I will check the format. --Everett

Leslie had emailed me and I had him remove his software/drivers for the printer and then reinstall, and it solved the problem.
