Default feed problem in Receipt Printing using vb.net

Hi All,

I am developing a POS receipt printing program.

When i print the item to printer, Printer is automatically doing form feed. I donot want the printer to perform form feed. It should stop after my print is over. [ withouth scrolling paper out ]

I tried RAWPrinterHelper class provided by microsoft for printing [ its not doing form feed ] , but the problem is, i am not able to set font for print information. So i am having alignment problem when data gets printed.

So i decided to go with printdocument. but its doing form feed automatically.

snippet of code which is using printdocument for printing.

Dim MyPrintObject As New clsTextPrint(strPrintInfo)
' Set font, if required
MyPrintObject.Font = New Drawing.Font("Courier New", 10)
MyPrintObject.Print()

I checked complete internet resource. not finding relevant information.

Please help me out friends.

Regards
Shiva.
