Crystal report printing in halfsize paper

Hi Guys,
Can you help me printing my crystal report 2008 report in half sheet?
i want to print it in size 8x6. i did create a printing profile in printer and set it in default.
but when i click the print button and check the preferences it always on "Letter" though i set the "halfsheet" profile in default.
"halfsheet" profile size is 8x6. when i manually select the halfsheet the printing is good. but when i dont changed it the
report print in Letter mode. can you please help me?
thanks

Hi Sastry,
Yes i do have admin rights to set the default profile of printer. and it also installed on the same computer i am printing. when i check the printer. the default is "halfsheet" where the size is 8x5.5.
but when i try to print, and check the preferences, it always show on "letter" and its consuming the whole letter size page when i try to print. and when i try to print the report and select the halfsheet, all is doing fine. its just to time consuming for the user to set the profile and print.
Hi Don
I did configuring the page size of the report but whenever i try to make it on 8x5.5 landscaape is auto select. but i need is portrait type since im printing on continues paper.

Failed to read data from report file : Reason: Crystal Reports: Print Engin

Hi,
When we try to migrate the crystal reports from BO R2 to BO R3, some of the reports are faling with the error:
Failed to create a new Report.Reason: Failed to read data from report file C:\DOCUME~1\xxxxx.rpt. Reason: Crystal Reports: Print Engine Error
Would please someone help me in fixing the issue.
Thanks and Regards,

Few quick checks to identify the cause -
1. Are you able to run report in your R2 system?
2. In XI3.1, check SIA running on which account.
3. Check the acount have sufficient rights on file system and registry.
4. What's your web server?
Give proper rights and import again. Hopefully it will resolve.

Crystal Report Print report on different paper size (A4/Letter)

I develop the crystal report 2008 with VS.net 2008. The report runs on web.
when I preview or debug with VS on my local computer, the crystal report using A4 (8.3 * 11.7 in), Which is correct.
However, after I deploy the program to the server, and try view and print report through IE, the print out is actually using Letter size (8.5 * 11 in).
Both on my local computer and the server, the default printer is set to A4 size. And on the crystal report, in the printer setup, the paper size is A4 as well.
I try on firefox, and safari. No luck. Same as IE.
The crystal report need to print barcode, and the paper size must be A4, cuz the barcode page is designed and printed on A4 Avery Laser Barcode sheet.
I tried on my PC by using remote server data souce, the printing works perfectly in A4 size (8.3"*11.7").
And I don't know why same program after deploy to the server, then it using Letter size (8.5" * 11"), which the size I never set to.
So strange.
Thanks

A few ideas \ suggestions:
1) Make sure you are using FP 3.3 runtime:
https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100016807202010E/cr2008fp33_redist.zip
2) Try a simple win app - use saved data report (crystalreportviewer1.reportsource = <path to saved data report>). Does this print correctly?
3) What print mode are you using; PDF or ActiveX?
4) Try export to RPT and PDF from your web app. Does it export correctly?

Crystal report printing using epson dot matrix printer (continouos paper)

Hi there, im tiff from the philippines.
i have a question on printing using a crystal report. How do i print using epson continuous printer(dot matrix)? im having a problem printing to that type of printer specially using continuous paper. the first page is correct but unfortunately the succeeding pages are not. its automatically adjusted upon reaching the second page. hope you can help me.
thanks a lot and looking forward to hear from you soon.

Check with the printer manufacturer that the matrix printer is Unicode compliant. If it is not, it will not work with Crystal Reports. If it is, make sure you have the latest printer driver updates.
Download SP 1 for CR 102 from here;
https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100006007872008E/crvs05sp1.exe

Crystal Report print to PCL file needs to contain searchable text

Hi,
I am using VS(2005) and Crystal Report XI R2 .net Service pack 4. I need to be able to create a pcl file that contains text information on the first page that needs to be parsed and read by another application. However, I am not able to use a generic/text only pcl driver to do this because the remainder of the report (page 2 on) needs to contain lines and table borders as if it were printed to paper from the printer. The report/print to file driver I have configured will produce a pcl file that meets my requirements when I print from Crystal XI R2 but when I use either the .Net view or I print directly form code all of the text in the pcl file is contained in an image.
Any suggestions on ways I can resolve this issue are greatly appreciated.
Greg

The CR.NET uses the .NET Framework print service for sending the output to the printer itself, where the page is sent as an image. There's no way to alter this behavior within CR.NET.
This is problematic for your task, as well as for tasks that rely embedded fonts or text strings (such as phone dialers, faxes, printer fonts, etc).
Whatever you do, you'd have to do outside of CR.NET

Crystal reports printing in dot matrix printer

I'm using Crystal Reports 2008 with Visual Basic.Net 2008. The problem is that when i print the report in a laser printer, everything is good, but when i used dot matrix printer (like Epson LX 300+), reports is printed smaller than original, doesn't matter if i see good in preview. This is an Asp.Net web form.
How can i fix this problem

1) Make sure you have the latest CR Service Pack:
SP4 https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100008782452011E/cr2008sp4.exe
SP4 MSI https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100008782532011E/cr2008sp4_redist.zip
SP4 MSM https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100008782522011E/cr2008sp4_mm.zip
2) Make sure you have the latest updates for the printer driver
3) Make sure the printer driver is Unicode compliant
4) Experiment with the "No Printer" option and Dissociate Formatting Page Size and Printer Paper Size option
5) Compare print from the CR designer to the app print. Do you see the same issue with both?

Crystal report Print small print area

Hello,
i made some receipt print and i had a problem with printig of report. I prepared report and in reportviewer it was OK, but when i send it to a receipt printer, the final ouptut is bad.The report was printed in small text area left bottom of paper.
in attach file: left is oputput, right is viewer.
I tried it to send via PrintToPrinter method or print from CrystalReportViwer. The problem is everywhere.
Maybe some problem with resolution..
Can you resolve my problem ?
Thanks you for your idea
Jan

Hello Jan
The most likely reason is the printer driver. From the screenshot, the report looks like it is formatted on an A1 or 8 1/2 X 11 page. But the printout is on a label printer(?). So, if the report is supposed to be used on a label printer, it must be formatted in the designer for that specific label printer.
You don't mention the version of CR or VS you are working with, but I assume it is VS 2010 / 2012 and SAP Crystal Reports, developer version for Microsoft Visual Studio (CRVS). If that is the case, make sure you apply Service Pack 8 for CRVS:
SAP Crystal Reports, developer version for Microsoft Visual Studio: Updates & Runtime Downloads

Crystal Report print layout error during print preview

Hi Everyone,
When I try print preview a marketing document, it will work the first time, and then when I try to print preview again it brings up a window asking me to login into the database with the sa username and password.
When putting in the correct password, the login fails.
When I click cancel, SAP hangs up and requires a restart.
All print layouts were done in Crystal Reports, and imported via the report layout manager.
This occurs on all marketing documents where there is a crystal print layout.
Anyone will be able to help me with this?
Thanks
Best Regards
Dario Moutinho

Hi Rahul,
Your solution worked. Thank you very much.
I also did not include a stored procedure into the connection that was needed in the layout.
This could have also added to the problem (for future reference).

Crystal Report Printing - A4 Issue

Hello Experts,
One of our customers use third party rental add-on with SAP B1. The add-on has cyrstal reports files. All these reports are set to letter size by default in report page setup. Client does not to print in A4 .
When the user clicks on Print Preview / Print Icon on rental order the , the report loads, but when sent to Printer for printing it becomes A4 (It should be letter).
The rental reports works fine on the SAP Server, meaning when sent to printer it goes as Letter size which is what we want but this does not happen at Client's machine's.
Also , i have an add-on running on my local machine and the reports prints in letter size with out any issue. I have been searching online regarding this issue but i haven't found any solution.
Can any one advise me on this issue. Is there any setting that i can do in crystal or printer ?

Is the default page size for the client's printer set at Letter or A4?
