This is a bug. I have letter-sized continuous paper here and I couldn't
find a way to make my good old LX300 print on them properly. I'm trying
to get it working since version 7.04 and believe me, I've tried
EVERYTHING, I've even tried to change the ppd file and simply it isn't
possible to make it work. I've tried generic dot-matrix drivers, IBM
drivers, they all works, some prints artifacts and wrong line breaks,
but none of them prints in a size that's not a4.
Using a4 continuous paper it works perfectly. Also, on Windows it works
perfectly no matter the paper size.
I think the system is not informing the paper size properly. For
example, if i configure a very small page, let's say 3x3in, if the page
is just black, the printer will print a 3x3in black square on every a4
paper. The same for letter, the printer will print a letter-sized
printing inside every a4 paper, but if the paper is not a4, sheesh
happens.
