To cut a long story short, I need to print on triplicate pressure forms. I
have an old but working Amstrad DMP2000, for which I am using the
recommended Epson FX80 driver for Win2k.

The forms are fanfold tractor fed, but (this is the good bit) measure 20cm
wide by 22.7cm high. Naturally the driver doesn't include this size.

Is there a way of telling the driver about custom sizes, or better still,
another driver for basic Epson 9-pin dot matrix printers that can cope with
user-defined paper sizes?

Please reply via the newsgroup, as the e-mail address is clearly wrong.
Thanks.

It should of course be DMP2000. Apologies.

What O/S are you running? My Windows ME machine offers Custom form sizes
for the FX80 printer; but from what your describing, the form is more likely
2.25 inches rather than 22.7 cm.
