Default Landscape VS Portrait printing problem

I try to print a report on a dot matrix printer (Tractor feed) from
access 97. It prints very well but I am unable to get it print the
right side. My printer Form is 8½x11 (Horizontal) so look like
landscape but is portrait for the printer. Unfortunately, if I want to
reproduce the same form in access, I need to put the report landscape
(portrait is not wide enough) but then it will print vertically on the
printer. I need to have a portrait page setup in access that is 11
inch wide, 8½ high.

I read in groups that it is possible to rotate label and text box with
something on www.leblanc.com but it transform the text in some kind of
picture. The printer I want to print to is an ASCII printer. There is
also no custom size paper available in the printer's drivers.

Any Ideas? The only solution I found is to print on A3 paper format,
which is wide enough, but twice as high. It is ok to print 1 page but
cannot print 2 or more in a row.
