Limited size in printing labels

Hello everybody,
We are trying to print labels, which are created from smartforms, to Zebra S4m (203 dpi). We use Host Spool Access Method C (Direct Operating System Call). Everything prints fine, but we are limited with the size of the printed document. The limit is only 644 KB. There is no error message in SAP queue or in Zebra printer when we exceeded this limit. But it prints a lower amount of labels than we need. We don't know whether the problem is in SAP system or in the printer. Is there any posibility to split the printing task?
Jan

Hello Jan,
could you pls let me know which device type are you using?
Also are you printing the label with sapscript or smartform?
Where you see the size limitation?
Can you test if you can print more size if you are using the access method G
from the frontend client PC to you zebra printer?
Regards
Jie Bai

Print labels row*column wise

Hi Gurus,
We have a requirement to create a report which will print labels (RTF layout using XML publisher). Our client wants supplier information (labels, single label of 8 lines) to be printed on a single page i.e. on A4 size paper, 3*8 = 24 labels should get printed like- (Below Lxy is a single label with 8 lines, x and y denotes numbers below)
L01 L02 L03
L04 L05 L06
L07 L08 L09
L10 L11 L12
L13 L14 L15
L16 L17 L18
L19 L20 L21
L22 L23 L24
This will be a nightly job and once client will come in the morning all the labels will get printed on the A4 size papers. These number of labels in a single request may vary as well eg- it can be either 4 during one night or 29 during another, so this has to be taken care while printing.
I can not call it as a matrix report as number of rows and columns may both get changed dynamically.
Is anybody came across the same requirement? Please provide your valuable inputs.
Thanks in advance.
Rgds,

Issue with Printing Labels using PrintToPrinter

Hi,
Recently we have upgraded our reports from crystal reports XI to crystal report 2008.
We are currently facing problems with the labels printed through crystal reports.
I've used the ReportDocument.PrintToPrinter(1, false, 0, 0); method to print the report directly to the label printer.
The problem is, if I export the label to a PDF file and print the report by selecting the printer the label comes out perfectly, but when I print the report directly using "printtoprinter" method instead of exporting it to a PDF, the font size is reduced and the label looks like its shrinked to half the size. Our production server is still running on crystal reports XI and we don't have any problem printing labels from it. Let me know if i'm not sailing in the right direction.
System Details:
OS: Windows Vista Buisness 64-bit
Visual studio 2008
.NET Framework 3.5
Label Printer: Dymo Labelwriter 330
Crystal Reports 2008
Code:
private ReportDocument oRpt = new ReportDocument();
// initialize the repot.
initReport();
oRpt.PrintOptions.PaperOrientation = PaperOrientation.Landscape;
oRpt.PrintOptions.PrinterName = prnName;
oRpt.PrintToPrinter(1, false, 0, 0);
Thank you,
Vijay

Hey Josh,
I'm sorry there was a typo in the link.
Here is the link for that forum Re: Custom Paper Size & Orientation Problem
The solution mentioned by Amit singh in the thread solved my problem. I'm pasting the code here for you to look at.
boReportDocument.Load(Server.MapPath("CrystalReport.rpt"));
        PrintOptions boPrintOptions = boReportDocument.PrintOptions;
        // The paper size used for this report is '14x7'.
      System.Drawing.Printing.PrinterSettings oPrinterSettings = new       System.Drawing.Printing.PrinterSettings();
        oPrinterSettings.PrinterName = "     ";
        foreach (System.Drawing.Printing.PaperSize oPaperSize in oPrinterSettings.PaperSizes)
            if ("14x7" == oPaperSize.PaperName)
                boPrintOptions.PaperSize = (CrystalDecisions.Shared.PaperSize) oPaperSize.RawKind;
                break;
        CrystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = boReportDocument;
Hope this solves your problem.

Problem printing labels on dot-matrix printer

I am currently using Oracle Reports v 3.0 on an NT network. I need to print labels on an Epson LQ-570+ printer. The user will run a number of reports which will create a file for each location we need to send to. The user will then send 10 - 20 files to the printer at a time. The problem I am having is that since we went to Reports 3.0 on NT if a file has only one label, it will print that label then page forward spitting out 10 blank labels. It then prints the next file. We are using continuous feed labels and are wasting a LOT of labels. I have tried to reset the page size in the properties page of the report but no luck. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

hello, I could not write English, but I will help you
You could see it in SYSTEM PARAMETERS of reports, in the MODE option, putting the to initial value Character type
You also have to see the Dflt.prt file, that this located in the C:\ ORAWIN95\ REPORT60\ PRINTERS, the who you control the margins of
impression in manner [caracter]. They for [default] are 80 Columns and 66 Lines, the
who you could publish and change the courages
You count me if I operate you.

Problem printing labels?

Since updating to 10.5 I'm having trouble printing labels from the Address Book. Is there someplace to change the defaults? I couldn't find one for fonts and labels. It always goes back to the default font, size and type of label. I only use one setting and find it very frustrating to keep going back to to change them.

The only spot for changing printing options is in Address Book's Print dialog. You can explore those if you haven't already to see what you can find.

Printing labels URGENT

Hi,
I have a problem printing on a specific printer called (Smart Label Printer 240). It actually prints nothing. :-)
The size of label is 28x89mm.
The PrintLabel implements the Printable interface which simply draws a string : this is the code :
Graphics2D g2=(Graphics2D)g ;
Font defaultFont=g2.getFont() ;
Font titleFont=new Font("sans serif",Font.BOLD,12) ;
g2.setFont(titleFont);
g2.drawString("This is a test",5,5) ;
Currently I have this code for setting the size of my label paper and printing it:
PrinterJob job=PrinterJob.getPrinterJob() ;
PageFormat pageFormat = new PageFormat() ;
Paper paper = pageFormat.getPaper() ;
// Set to A4 size.
paper.setSize(79.36992,252.28296);
// Set the margins.
paper.setImageableArea(10, 10, 180 , 60);
pageFormat.setPaper(paper);
job.setPrintable(new PrintLabel(labelinfo),pageFormat) ;
if(job.printDialog())
try
job.print() ;
catch(PrinterException exc)
System.out.println(e) ;
Please could some help me with this. I searched the web but found nothing usefull.

paper.setSize(79.36992,252.28296);I dont think, that it is A4...
get the Paper by the PrinterJob
pj.defaultPage();
pj.pageDialog(...)
because on some printer, the printing does not start, if it has not the correct paper... maybe thats the problem.
And then when setting paper size:
paper.setImageableArea(paper.getImageableX(), paper.getImageableY(), 180 , 60);would be better

Canon image runner advanced C2030/C20 ,printing labels problems

Question is for Canon image runner advanced C2030/C20 ,printing labels from Filemaker pro 10
1)how & where do you turn off the double sided printing?
2it )will only print the first 30 pages in a range,how do I increase this

goldn:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Just ran a test and I got a perfect card. Here's what I did.
1 - create the card and type Command-P.
2 - select Stylus Photo R200 under Printer
3 - click on the Advanced button
4 - in the bottom drop down menu select Paper Handling
5 - select the radio button "Use documents paper size: 7.00 in x 10.00 in
6 - now select Print Settings in the 3rd drop down menu
7 - select the type of paper you're using and the print quality you want. I used Photo and High Speed. (also used plain paper for my test)
9 - put a piece of 7 x 10 paper in the printer (yes, you'll have to trip the paper beforehand or use card stock designed for this)
10 - click on Print
11 - when the paper exits the printer quickly put it back in the printer
That will do it. Now there is a caveat. Putting it back into the printer before drying tended to get my leading edge nipped. If you use heaver card stock I don't think that will happen but just be aware. If you wait a moment to put the page, turned over, back into the printer to let the ink dry a bit, all you'll have to do is press the middle button which will be blinking red and that will feed the other side thru when you're ready.

Is it possible to print labels using pages?

I need to print labels for honey jars but I can't get the font size small enough for all the details I need to print. Size 9 seems to be the minimum. I used to print them using Appleworks Drawing but now I am using OSX 10.7.5 I can no onger use appleworks.

Just type the size in the size field. I got down to 1 point type, which is illegible.

PIXMA MG8220 default page size for printing is set incorrectly to 6x4, need Letter

I have a PIXMA MG8220, and the default page size for printing is set incorrectly to 6x4, I need it to be Letter paper size. I'm wasting a lot of paper, and cannot figure how to reset the defaults on the printer vs. individual laptops using the printer?Simon

Hi simonp, To set the paper size to be printed on, please follow these steps: 1. Open an application such as TextEdit. 2. Go up to File and select Print, or press the CMD+P keys on your keyboard. 3. Locate the PAPER SIZE field, then select the LETTER paper size. 4. Look for the drop-down menu labeled PRESETS, then expand this menu and choose SAVE AS.
5. Type in a name of your choice for this default setting, then click OK.
You will now be able to select the above created preset from any application you print from, with the default paper size being Letter. Hope this helps!

How do I get spouses and children on to printed labels and envelops?

I store spouses and children in the fields provided for these names. When I go to print labels, Address Book puts the primary name and one randomly selected child name on the first line. So if the person is Jane Smith, I have her spouse listed as John, and two kids listed as Jake and Janice, the label will read.
Jane Smith and Janice
142 Main St.
Nowhere, NH
Can I get the spouse name and the other kids to show up? How?
+Also, any tips on dealing with couples with two last names? That's more of a data entry question, but if anyone has ways this works for labels but also for logical address book and iPhone look up.+

How to allow domain users to customize Adobe PDF printer page size in Printer Preferences

Hi
I am able to customize Adobe PDF printer page size in Printer Preferences in admin login but not able to customize Adobe PDF printer page size in domian users login...
can I have a solution to customize Adobe PDF printer page size in domin user login

WOW! I was amazed to see that within minutes of posting my initial thread, I tried something that works.
Apparently, the only way is will actually convert is if you select the regular Print option in the File tab. Then, change the Printer to Adobe PDF & the Paper Size to 11x17. It also worked for 36"x48" becuase I created a custom size named "Poster", so I changed the paper size to Poster & it worked!
I hope this helps someone. I searched for an existing forum on this issue off & on for MONTHS before creating this thread. If anyone has any suggestions why the Adobe PDF tab /PDF Maker wouldn't work, I'd like to know.

In Address Book, I would like to have a field "File As". So, l can list "Joe Smith", as "The Smith Family". I will use this when I print labels for Xmas cards and such. Thanks!

When printing labels for each printed label a blank label comes out of the printer

Hello Experts
We have a CR report which is designed to prints labels for the items using a label printer. After an upgrade that we have last month the settings for this report are missing so the labels were coming out wrong.
Due to this I have had to reconfigure this report and its printing preferences and so far I have managed to make the prints fit in each label. But the problem is that if I try to print 5 copies of a label, the 5 labels come out of the printer just fine, butt after it another 5 blank labels come out of the printer too.
I have tried with all parameters in "Printing preferences", mainly in the "Material" tab but nothing works.
Thanks in advance and regards
