How to suppress form feed

Hi again , gurus

We have a problem regarding LAT printers. We've installed several EPSON
FX-1050 serial printers through a DECserver 90M port. The problem is
that everything we print, generates a form feed, leaving an undesired
blank page (an invoice, with a correlative number).

We've modified /etc/printcap symbols "ff", "fo" and "sf" , with
frustrating results (we've also modified "sh", in order to suppress the
burst page, and it worked fine).

Our DU version is 3.2C, running on an AlphaServer 2100 4/275.

Any hints or clues appreciated, as usual, i'll summarize

TIA
