Fooling application printing

Hello All,

I'm using Library World which will not print labels correctly on a dot
matrix printer -- after printing a label it form feeds as if to the bottom
of an 11" page (instead of just doing nothing to print on the next label in
the roll).  LW support doesn't think this will be fixed any time soon.

I've tried setting the custom page height of my printer to 3" (one label
height) but this does not alter the behaviour.

Does anyone know of a print utility that will "hijack" the print command
from LW and allow me to send it to my printer as a 3" (or whatever) page?

Thanks.

Regards,
Robert
