Hello
Search the Oracle Reports Online help for "Printer Code Before" :
Printer Code Before property
Printer Codes are references to printer escape sequences that define special printing instructions (for example, special font sizes or highlighting) for the object. The Printer Code Before property specifies the printer escape sequence to be executed before each line of the object. The printer escape sequences are inserted after the object is triggered to print but before it has actually printed.

  • Character mode report no new line after header.

    I am using Reports 6i. I have a character mode report with a header and body. I am outputing it as a .cvs file. The problem is that there is no live feed after the header. This means when I load the .csv file into excel the first row has the headers and the first data record, after that is it OK. Eatch row in the spreadsheet has a single data record/row.
    any ideas?

  • Printing Character Mode Report On Oracle 9i AS - Application Server

    Hi All,
    Even though I have put this problem in Reports Forum,
    I thought it fit to put forward this problem in Forms Forum
    since Forms Forum is being accessed by a large number
    of developers across the world.
    Now the problem :
    I have developed a report in Character mode that runs in
    hundreds of pages. The output will be taken on High speed
    Dot Matrix Printer since the client requirement is fast printing
    & economical printing. That is the reason to develop this report
    in Character mode & not Bitmap mode. This report works
    fine in Client-Server environment.
    However, the problem lies in the Web Server environment.
    The same reports will be run on Oracle 9i AS. Since the
    browser supports only HTML & PDF format, Character
    mode reports faces a major problem.
    Can anybody help me to resolve this problem ??
    I would like to remind you again that the constraint is NOT
    TO USE LASER PRINTERS.
    Thanks.

  • Printing of Character Mode Reports on 3 tier on Dev 6i

    Has anyone done character mode printing of reports on Dev6i? We are facing problem of REP: 3002. We have already loaded Orarrp on server and client and also tried changing the service property from log on as System Account to Log on as Administrator and also vice-versa, but nothing seems to work.
    Any help will be appreciated.
    Plz repond to email: [email protected]
    B.Suryaprakash

    The first thing to do is to make sure that you can print a character mode report on the server box just using the rwrun60 executable.
    If you can do this then you should take a look and make sure that the user that's started the reports server has access to the printer that you're trying to print to (you seem to have changed from the localsystem log on to Administrator, but are you sure that Administrator can access those printers).
    I think that orarrp is a red herring here - and I'm not sure why you're trying to set it up.
    Hope this helps,

  • Character mode report printing

    hi everyone,
    When I am running report in character mode, it is working fine in previewer. But as soon as I am giving the printing from there, it is giving Rbe ERROR dialog box and runform is getting hanged. How can I get report printed directly from previewer in character mode report generation.
    On the other hand if i redirect o/p to a file by making destination type file, then I am able to take to print of file. If any have a solution, please reply ASAP.
    Thanking every one
    Ashish

    Hi Ashish,
    It is not clear from your question about the type of error message you are getting.
    Please meake sure that the report is indeed a character mode report.
    Please verify the following for that:
    1. The mode in system parameters is defaulted to
    'caracter'
    2. In the property palette of the report, the "design in character units" should be marked as yes.
    Please ensure that above points and try printing again.
    thanks

  • 6i character mode report migrate to 11g , printing result were incorrect in the same matrix printer?

    Hi All
    We got stuck when our 6i character mode report migrate to 11g.
    We use the same PC to test,  when run 6i report(character mode with 200 column) in legacy system, report result were correct in our matrix printer ,
    When running in 11g, if we directly print report via report builder (without preview), result were correct.
    But running report via preview/screen mode, printing result were incorrect ( not 200 column width).
    We try to adjust PC's printer/paper setting , but our-defined printing option never appeared in printer dialog.
    Is anything(config or some setting) we forgot to do in this situation ?
    Thanks for all your patient response!

    Hi,
    This sounds like a similar problem that I had (and still having). It was (is) a Bug. Go to metalink.oracle.com and reference this bug#1413754. See if this is your problem as well. My only work around was change the format of the file instead of using character mode I am now using PDF. Which is working fine for me.

  • Font Size in Character Mode Report

    Hi ,
    I have to print a report in a pre printed Stationary, which has tabular columns The columns are little bit small . when i have bigger data say value like 9999999.45 it over prints on the pre printed text. is it possible to reduce the size of the data at these places and be normal in other parts of the report.
    i.e. Font size reduced inside the tabular column and normal for the remaining part of the report
    Will appreciate the help

    Font size in character mode report cannot be control through Oracle Report.
    <br><br>
    You can use report .prt file or manually set the printer to print character in small size.

  • Problem in Character Mode Report (Urgent)

    Dear All
    i m designing a character mode report
    and when i preview it ,,, it will display
    different report font which is big in size
    and width so it is not fit in the designed columns
    can any one help me ,, y this problem is exist
    though i m using Dot matrix printer EPSON DFX-8500
    printer.

    Hi..
    If you are directly giving Print from previewer..you need to set printer to 10 cpi (if you want bigger font) and 12 dpi to compress the larger font..
    CPI is character per inch so in one inch 10 chr or 12 chr can fir acc to setting.
    If you are uploading file on Oracle Apps then you need to set fonts if needed in concurrent manager,printer setting,Style,fonts ..
    "But the hardware setting is vewry imp..set the font in DRAFT mode"..
