Form Feed at the end of print job

Hi all,
We're experiencing problems when printing reports on an Epson dot matrix printer (the LQ-670 one). A bit of searching through Navision/Axapta forums on the internet learned me that:
1 - Navision was designed to be used with laser printers
2 - Navision always sends a form feed at the end of a print job (so the (laser)printer is ready for the next print job)
Since we're using fanfold paper on a matrix printer, this form feed at the end of the print job gets us into trouble.
Result:
first print job : OK
2nd print job : text is printed about 1 centimeter too low on the preprinted paper :?
3th print job : text is printed another 1 cm lower ...
If we're printing reports over one page (a 5-page invoice for example) it all works fine (text is positionned exactly as expected on the preprinted paper). It's just this extra form feed that seems to be send to the printer at the end of a print job.
Anyone any ideas on how to have Navision NOT send this form feed at the end of each print job?
Thanks in advance!
Tom
