From my experience, a laser printer will eject the page at the end. I'm no printing expert so I'm not sre how one can control it more precisely. I know you could accumulate enough printing jobs to fill a sheet then do a page at a time. Laser printers I've worked with didn't have a way to linefeed the paper and tear it off. Maybe there's laser printers with continuous feed paper (rolls)? I know dot matrix printers have escape codes to do it.
