Use dot matrix printers for printing text reports in Reports 10g

In Forms 6i, customers had the option to use dot matrix printers for printing text reports.
I believe, from 9i onwards, text based reports aren’t supported and instead HTML/PDF,DOC,RTF reports are supported which are not text based and use modern day printers.
Is it still possible to use text printers ??

Reports for dot matrix printers in character mode 17 cpi

Hi,
I want to know how to develop reports to be printed in dot matrix printers
in character mode 17 cpi using BI Publisher 11g.
There is a guide available that can guide me?
How to print to a printer connected to a client machine?
How to print to a printer connected to a server machine?
Can someone help me?
Thank you,
Ricardo Cesar

Hi all,
This is to inform that I have myself found the solution. It is possible to print matrix report in condensed mode. The method for printing is same as for any other report. The mistake I made was not checking whether the .prt file is getting referred correctly. The DESFORMAT system parameter was getting populated through the calling form. By referring to the correct .prt file the problem got fixed.

Dot-Matrix Printers configuration.

Hi All,
Anybody has any documents on these (weired) Dot Matrix printers configuration. Am working on Japanese characters and the output of the printer behaves weiredly for 1 byte characrers and 2 byte charactre. So when I try to print using the same Layout Set (SAPScript), I get different positioning of the fields depending upon the bytes of characters.
So I want to know and would love to have the information for Dot Matrix problems and their resolutions in SDN.
Thanks
Anand

Is anyone having a idea of how to configure the Dot-Matrix printer with oracle Apps andFollow the same procedure of setting up any other printer (setup the printer at the OS level, register the printer in the application, and restart the CM).

Hi Sreesudha,
I have used three different line types for the main window.
LTYPE1(Header) : For printing the column heading along with the title for consignor address.
LTYPE2(Main Area) : For printing the line items detail. For the first line, I have to print Material Description and chapter Id and if the same material exists for the second line item, then it should not be printed, so I have written condition for not printing it.
LTYPE3(Footer) : For printing the footer with the net and gross weight details.
And for paragraph format, I have used the custom Para. Format only.
Suggest me ASAP.

Dot Matrix Printer for OSX

What Dot Matrix printers are supported in OSX? Any OkiData's or Epsons? Thanks

No others included in OS X that I know of. I understand that problem with the included drivers (You find them under ESP instead of Epson) is that they don't reset correctly to the top of the form - so printing labels probably doesn't work. You should try it for yourself.

Line Matrix / Dot Matrix Printers and Reporting Tools

Hi,
Recently i came across with a P7000 Line Matrix Printer. I need to take out more then 2000 pages at the end on each month.
Previously here people were used to to send printout directly from FoxPro (yes that right!). That time all the reports come out from Line Matrix printer very fast and text are not distorted. And header was still in 'Bold' that remind me old DOS days.
In most of the reporting tools that I used, all the text characters are distorted and the printouts take longer time 'n toner to came out, because they prints in grafix mode.
Please let me know the Reporting tools that could handle/use the the dot matrix printers fonts and styles.

I have worked with Reports 3.0 earlier and that was pretty fast with our dot matrix printer.
AFAIR, you need to use Dot-matrix-happy fonts for the speed to be acceptable.

Output Device settings for Dot Matrix Printers.

Hi Experts,
I've made a page format according to Dot Matrix paper.But at that time of print,system is showing an error message that your output device is not support to this format.
So,how to define Dot Matrix Printer Setting (Wep LQ DSI 5235) in SPAD?
Regards,
Prashant Sharma.

Hi Prashant,
I believe that the page format that you are using in the SPAD for the Output device must have configured with the Device Type as well.
Click on the full administration in the SPAD and then attach the page format to the device type.
Might this will fix your issue.
Pleasce check the reference link:
How to configure a page format in SPAD.

Crystal Report speed problem on dot matrix printers

We are attempting to print marketing documents (sales orders) to a dot matrix printer using Crystal Reports. All the add-ons for B1 do this using the crystal report viewer which causes crystal to send true type fonts to the printer, making it very slow. We can run the crystal reports in draft print mode outside of B1, and the performance is good. Is there a way to get the same performance in B1 using Crystal?
All solutions we have found will require us to launch Crystal reports and have the end user enter parameters, using a link off the application menu works this way. But we are looking for a better solution to print to the dot matrix printer faster.
Thanks

Hi Peter,
When you are printing it from b1 make all the font to the regular type ( not like bold are italic) like that then it will be some how faster...

Tiger & Dot Matrix Printers

Hi all,
I'm need to buy a dot matrix printer that is compatible with Mac OS X 10.4.10 to be used for printing invoices from Filemaker Pro 9.
Currently looking at the Epson LX 300+ ii, but can't find any info on compatibility.
Is there anyone out there that use this particular model successfully?
What about other brands?
Thanks for the info.

There are very few dot matrix users out there - you'll be waiting a long time.
Look at this:
http://openprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=Epson-LX-300plusII
Search here for other models:
http://openprinting.org/printer_list.cgi
I have no experience getting various drivers to work - but maybe Matt Broughton (who visits here often) can help/tell you if it works already.

How to stop auto from-feed on a dot matrix printer for printing only a single line of data at a frequency of 30 seconds

Hello friends
In a particular application, it is required to print a single line of data on a dot matrix printer (continuous sheets) at a frequency of 30 seconds. That is printing is to be carried out line-by-line on the same form without a form feed.
We are facing a problem of a form feed after printing of each line. Kindly help me to solve this problem of auto form-feed. How to continuously print at a regular interval without from-feeding.

Is this printer connected to a network?
You may need to look at the printer manual to see if there is a setting for a form feed. I remember when we had a dot matrix printer on the network about 12 years ago, there would be a network timeout setting of something like 30 seconds. So if you didn't continue to send data, the network will end the print job and send the file to the printer which would auto form feed at the end. Many of our basic programs had to be rewritten because they would do an LPRINT periodically, if you took along time progressing through the inputs, you would easily hit the 30 second timeout. So all the programs had to be rewritten to save the data to be printed to a file, and only once you execute a print command, it would read the file back in and Lprint it (or a Print#1) to the LPT port.
Since the printer was on the network, and basic could only print to LPT's, we had to use a net command to capture the LPT1 port and direct it to the network queue.
I don't remember all the details, but those are the bits and pieces I do remember. I think the answer to your problem lies in there somewhere.
Namely:
1. Printer setting to auto form feed.
2. Network setting that closes print job after timeout period.

Printing using dot matrix printer,problem with landscape printing

Hi all,
We are planning to use Dot matrix printers for printing through SAP.We do front end printing using Windows OS. I am able to get prints properly if it is a script form. In case of list outputs, printer is printing the text outside the paper.Only half of the text is printing on the continuous stationary. Actually document is to be printed in Landscape format. So printer should print data vertically on the paper,but it's printing horizontally. I have created sparate output device for this printer.My printer is TVS Electronics HD745 24 Pin heavy duty printer. I have assigned OKI341 as device type for this device.Any more settings I need to do to get printing in landscape mode?
