    Having trouble with CSS (on account of me knowing little about it!) and printing to receipt printers. I have a very small amount of text (3 lines, no styling) to print to a receipt. Chrome prints it fine but IE and Firefox stream a full A4 page out. I am using a print css file with the css below. Can anyone suggest a way to make these browsers only print the 3 lines and then cut, instead of paging loads of blank recript paper?
    @media print
 {
  @page
  {
   margin-bottom: .5em;
   margin-left: .5em;
   margin-right: .6em;
   margin-top: .5em;
   width: 8.5;
   height: 11;
   size: 8.5in 11in;
  }
 }

    Have you tried reducing the values of the width, height and size properties?

    8.5 x 11 inches is US Letter dimensions.
