PROBLEM PRINTING CUSTOM SIZE IN WINDOWS XP PRO

I HAVE A PANASONIC KX-P1180 DOT MATRIX PRINTER. I PERFORMED THE ROUTINE I READ HERE TO SET UP A CUSTOM PAPER SIZE SO THAT MY LABEL PROGRAM WOULD ADVANCE ONE LABEL AT A TIME. PRIOR TO THAT, IT WOULD PRINT THE LABEL FINE BUT THEN ADVANCE SEVERAL LABELS. AFTE
R I SET THE CUSTOM PAPER SIZE OF 3.5 IN WIDE BY 1.0 IN HIGH, IT PRINTS A FEW UNRELATED CHARACTERS ON ONE LABEL, THEN ADVANCES SEVERAL LABELS AND DOES THE SAME THING. I CHECKED THE PANASONIC WEBSITE AND FOUND THAT WINDOWS XP HAS THE CURRENT DRIVER FOR THE P
RINTER WHICH IS THE DRIVER CURRENTLY INSTALLED. PLEASE TELL ME WHY THE CUSTOME PAPER SIZE IS CAUSING ERRATIC PRINTING.......THANK YOU....JOHN

WHAT, I CANT HEAR YOU,SAY IT AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!

Typing in all Caps is considered shouting, is extremely rude and makes the
posting very difficult to read.
