I set up a Mailmerge template using Word2003 with a 4" page length defined in
Page Setup.  The merged data looked fine on the screen, but when printed to a
matrix printer with continuous stationery each page throw seems to skip as
though it is printing on A4 sized sheets.  I've even set the printer itself
to 4" page length but Word seems to override both the template document
settings and the printer settings.  I tried a similar exercise with an old
Windows98/Word97 PC and it seemed to work, so what is the difference with XP
and Word2003?
Or am I missing a setting somewhere?

Thanks

Yes, I was indeed missing something.  I've fixed it now.
