Thanks Jacqueline for your answer.
I thought of that. But the series start to 1 the first day of the year
and finish the last day of the year. I cannot know in advance the
number of documents to be printed. And I don't want to count manually
pages before to put them in the printer. So, I need to know when the
printer stop to print when there is no more page in the paper tray.

Is it possible to do that with Revolution ? I think I need to
"communicated" with the printer and "listen" to know if the paper
tray is empty.
I think it is simpler than that. The printer will cache the print
job and if the paper runs out, it will wait until you reload the
paper tray and continue printing where it left off. So I think all
you need to do is create a print layout and a repeat loop that
prints a number and a page break, and then send the whole job to the
printer at once.
For example, if you need 1000 numbers:
repeat with x = 1 to 1000
put x into fld "numberFld" of card "printLayout"
print cd "printLayout"
print break
end repeat
I think that should work.
