i have problem to print dot matrix using C#. My problem is that some how i cant set the paper size dynamically. For example, if the user only bought 1 item, my program will print the bill as big as the default paper size on printdialog (A4,letter,etc).
I'm trying to print as much as its needed (paper size dynamic) by using this code below:
printDoc.DefaultPageSettings.PaperSize = new PaperSize("First custom size", 830, paperheight);
my program will print the bill and eject the paper as long as A4 size paper (Default paper size on the printdialog is A4). Is there anyway i can fix this. or is there anyway i can set the papersize. Because the project will use Epson LX 300+ with roll paper. Thanks in advance
