actually Jay - I think inadvertently you answered my question better then I
was really looking for. I originally wanted to do this with PDF, but the
costs for pdflib were just too high, and I wouldn't find an open source/free
solution. I will have to take a look at fpdf, and see if I can use it.

I am very unfamiliar with printing from PHP, but could you just guess how
many lines per page you want to print and after that many lines issue a page
break then print your header for the next page? Once you have it working you
can tweak the line per page to where they fill a whole sheet of paper.

Might not be the best solution, but you _could_ create PDFs of your data,
then
print those...? Really clunky, but you could do nice formatting type
stuff...

I tried to do what your talking about, never found a way, other then
guessing where it would end with a lot of test runs. We ended up
switching to writing out PDF's which is much more scientific where you
can just check X,Y coordinates to see where you are on the page.

is there a php command that could determine if the end of a page has been
reached according to their print driver? I'm need to print out a report
that could be multiple pages. I need to be able to put column headings &
page numbers.
thanks,
Jeff
