Default From Outlook to Dot Matrix Printer

Hi,

I want to print plain text e-mail to a dot matrix printer from
Microsoft Outlook (Windows XP). The printer uses roll paper. continuous printing.

The printer we are using Epson LQ-590.

The message comes in through pop3... and I want to keep the headers
printed to minimal.

I want to make sure.. a few line e-mail message doesn't feed the
entire page like an A4 sheet with laser printer.

What steps I need to take to make sure the printer doesn't waste extra
paper.

If a 3 line message, then the printer should immediately stop after
the third line is printed.. and feed a few lines for tearing out only.

I want it to behave like a Telex Printer or SITA Messaging Printer.

Please help... how to achieve it... or any other alternative programs
to use.
