is there anyway to set the Length of the Paper Size to be Dynamic when printing.

Question

lm using a Epson u220 printer and need to print Continues paper, when ever I generate invoice Report.

Now I have a hard time on how to set my Paper Size to Width = 5 and the Length to be a dynamic.

Meaning If the Data of the Invoice Report can fill up a Lenght 25 inches then the Custom paper size will be
5 X 25. and If the Data of the Invoice Report can fill up only to the length of 10 inches then the Custom paper size will be
5 X 10.

So is there anyway possible to set the Length of the Paper Size to be Dynamic.

FYI,
i am using crystal report's
report.PrintToPrinter(1, false, 0, 3); for print the document.

Hi U220 is a pos printer right? Why do you need to set the lenght of the receipt? the pos printer has a built-in cutter. Or are you saying that when you're printing it feeds and feeds your receipt and doesn't know when to stop? My requirement is that i need to print invoice it may contain 10 line or may contain 20 line. every thing should be in the one invoice. for eg if you go to any supermarket if you buy 3 items you may get small sized bill. if you buy 30 items you might get big sized bill. i want to implement the same in my winform application while print the invoice using crystal repot. exactly i need that how to increase printer page lenth through c#??????????
