Hi,
i'm using crystal reports to print barcode labels on Zebra TLP printer, i have adjusted the size of the barcode on the report and the size of the zebra page from zebra settings, the barcode prints fine, but the printer always brings out another empty label which causes wasting in labels, can any one tell how can i make it print only one lable every time????
thanks in advance

I've never done labels, but if it's like creating a report you may want to double check that all the sections you are not using are properly suppressed.

Thanks Kschuler for your reply,
I've already suppressed all sections except 'Details' section, but when i open section expert of the 'Page footer', Paging tab i find 'New Page After' checked by default and i can't remove the check from it, i think maybe it's the problem... by the way i'm using crystal reports 2008.

Hi Ilan,
sorry for the delay
this problem was fixed by adjusting the page and the barcode label size
try to make them as small as possible, also make all page margins = 0
hope it helps
Regards

This problem occurred with me too, finally I found out what seems to be the problem. In printing preferences open Options Tab and make sure that the size width and height matches the size of the labels you use with zebra printer, since I am using zebra LP 2824 they were 1.5 inch by 1 inch respectively.
I wish it works with you too.
Good luck.

Ya this is working for me. But after printing the content three rows of stickers coming out without printing. This Continues after every page ends.
