Generic / Text Driver with Access Reports

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance



Can anyone tell me if the following is possible?

I am using an Epson DFX-8500 printer for this, with nothing entered for
printer codes or anything.

I am trying to make a report in Access 2003 (2000 format) and use the
Generic / Text Driver to increase my printing speed. I am currently
using the epson 8500 driver which takes the printer's maximum speed and
makes it less than half of that. When I take an existing report and
print it to the Generic driver or make a fresh report and print it to
the Generic driver the data is printed ok, but the printer cannot find
the end of page correctly. I am using standard tractor feed paper set
to letter size.

The page n of y should always be at the bottom and it will be anywhere
from too high on the page to on the next one. I cannot get any
commands on the printer tab to work. All they do for me is print on
the reports.

Is there any help out there for entering the Epson printer commands
into the printer commands tab?
