Just some random thoughts:

Do you know what commmand is actually being sent at the end of each line? Is
is really a newpage command?

Is there a DIP switch on the printer that may affect this behavior?

Does this happen when you attach the printer directly to a windows client?

Can you print successfully from the linux server to the printer?
