Yes that is exactly the kind of endless label paper that I had in mind.
I use exactly the same. The only difference is that I do not cut the
paper. The customer just takes the labels from the paper.

Of course you can use my solution. Everything holds.
You should just print 1, 2, 3 or four labels. Position the text
with TextOut. Now when you do a NewPage() and thereby force the
printer to cut, then the customer has to have adjusted the printerdriver
to the /length of paper/. It is the responsability of the customer
to define the pagelength.
