I am working on a project which is used to print a CHEQUE,

the problem which i face now is, since the Size of the cheque is small rectangle i cannot place it horizontally(normal position), i am placing it vertically 90degree rotated.

Now the problem i face is

. The program which i did works fine in Side feeding printer , but in center feeding printer it prints irregularly.

so now i should get a way to get the cheque size and the place where the cheque is placed in the printer. so that i can start my printing from that position.

I hope you understand my problem.

Thanks in advance

How does the printer know what paper is in it ? Does it get set to a certain custom paper size ? If the printer doesn't know what paper is in it, your program isn't going to be able to tell, either.

Well, you really should edit your post if you want to add something. Not that you added anything, really. Like I said, if the printer has not been set up to use a special paper size, then it's for certain that it doesn't know the size or location of your cheque, therefore it's impossible for your code to work it out.
