FileMaker can(not) print to a Label Printer

I am trying to create a receipt using Dymo Label 3027,(2.25 x 300 feet).
The receipt will not be the same length for each time. I currently created a custom label of 2.25 x 3.25 inches.
The label has a Title Header, body, and Grand trailing Summary.
My test data has 15 items with description and prices.
In preview mode the label is 3 pages long.
I try to print the Dymo Labeler prints the last page and about 6 inches of blank space.
Then the printing stops and the printer window shows "printed two sheets of three sheets".
Then I pulled out the paper and reinstalled the label in the printer and it prints page two with the same space after second page.
Then, I remove and reinstall and load paper and the first page prints the same as the first 2 pages.
Then I have to delete the print job request.
Then I changed the paper length to make it one label.
The results are the label prints fine, but the blank space at the end continues to be an issue.
The printer does not complete job status so I need to delete the print job in Printer window.
I have gone under printer options before printing and changed the paper handle to "normal" and "reverse" and the results are the same as above.
