Hi Ralf,
Okay, first off I use Geoworks under OS/2, and also the spooler under 
os/2. The spooler in Geos is also enabled, and all printing is routed 
through a print buffer.
Since this problem only exists when printing from Geoworks, then I 
must assume that the problem does NOT lie within OS/2 or it's spooler 
or the hardware print buffer. If it did, then the form feed is easily 
turned off using those items.
I use a PanasonicKXP1124, which can run native or IBMx24Proprinter OR 
Elq2500, the epson emulation which is the one I nearly always use.
The geoworks spooler is mentioned in the Geoworks manual but I cannot 
find it.
Unrelated is the fact that when switching between OS/2 windows and 
Geoworks, my mouse looses focus, and will lockup Geoworks. I'm using 
Hercules Dynamite Pro video card 800x600 Tseng et4000 chip.
Say Hi to Helga.
