I am printing on a dymo labelwriter with 89x36 mm labels. If I print
with textout with 0 as height argument (&landscape) it will start appx
1 cm from the top of the label. If I print with dymo software the top
of the label CAN be printed.
If i use negative numbers for the argument text gets cut of at the
mentioned 1 cm, so it seems like a problem physically printing to the
top 1 cm EXCEPT for the fact that dymo software prints to it no
problem.

Page dimensions are set correctly in printer options and I also tried
feeding windows with dmpaperwidth and -height through code. This
leaves the label correctly blanco, while fineprint shows a perfectly
dimensioned and printed label.

So much for printing problems over after switching from dos app to win
app.
Thanks for any suggestions, Hans
