> What do you consider /two pages/ using endless paper ?
I considered that in both cases is written in the printer job queue 2 pages.
Because we assumed that Form Feed is the same like NewPage and this is not
the same. That means that I have to send a escape sequence to the printer.
(I will test in the evening)
FYI  I'm testing now not with a label printer. (This one is located home)
But the problem is not linked to a label printer. Because I'm also not able
to send text, form feed sequence and again text to a printer using TPrinter.
And that's my problem.

> But what is your problem then when the result is the same ?
I can only use the TPrinter due to the Barcode which needs a Canvas but this
soultion works right now only with NewPage which will force the cutter to
cut what is wrong.

The last test was only to find out if NewPage and sending a Escape Sequnce
(Form Feed) is the same.
So my only solution can be to find a way to send a Escape Sequence which is
working in the context of TPrinter.
