Thanks,

You have to define a custom paper size as follow:
1. start -> control panel -> Printer and faxes
2. In printer and faxes window:
file --> server properties
3. Click for add new.
4. fill the size, the format name, etc.
5.. do it for each printer.

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 XI Print report on different paper size (A4/Letter)

Hi,
I have designed report in Crystal XI using paper sieze Letter. Multipler sites are using this application. User in USA are using Letter size paper and User in Euorpe are using A4 size paper. All reports work fine for USA users.
When Eurpoe users print the report on A4 size paper which set in Letter size, the report is truncated from Header or footer. They are printing report from Application and application is set on Citix server.
If Anybody have any idea how to setup Crystal report so it can print on any paper size?
Thanks
Bhagvat

Hi Don,
Please find the below description.
Background: Crystal Report XI is utilized to develop and view reports with data source from Oracle based LIMS application (Vendor: LabWare). The reports are printed using network printer on US Letter paper for users located in North America and on A4 paper for users located in Europe. The report format is US Letter and designed to print on both paper formats i.e. Letter and A4.
Issue: When reports are printed by users in Europe using A4 format paper the printer defaults to US Letter paper (in printer preferences) resulting to data cut off from top and bottom on the printout.
1)      When report layout is select to A4 during developing reports using CR, the printing preferences changes to A4 when printed and vice versa for Letter format. How can we avoid CR to enforce from changing printing preferences?
2)     According to Citrix engineers in the company, the printer drivers installed on Citrix servers have nothing to do with printing preferences and CR defaults to paper size based on report design. What do we tell them about doing different to resolve this issue?
3)    Even though a printer preference of default printer on local desktop is changed to A4, the report gets printed to Letter format result in data cutoff. We have tried this option with several HP printers from few different company locations.
Thanks
Bhagvat

Print report with continous paper by a thermal printer

I am trying to design a report (using Crystal Reports for VS2010) for a receipt to be printed on a thermal printer with continuous paper.(8centimeter paper) Now a receipt will need to have variable height according to the number of items it contains.
The problem is that Crystal Reports takes the page setup from those available in the print setup and all these paper sizes have a fixed length .
How can I set the paper to a continuos paper?

Hi,
When you go to Crystal Reports | Design | Page Setup there is an option for Dissociate Formatting Page Size and Printer Paper Size. Put a check in the box. You can set the horizontal size.
Also make sure you do not have anything in the page header or footer.
Good luck,
Brian

Restrict printing a report on physical paper

HI All
I am generating online report from my Forms 10g application in the web browser in PDF format.
Now I want to restrict the user to take print of that report on physical paper based some application restrictions.
How do I achieve this?
Thanking You

Hi Oais,
I have a payroll report that should be printed on a sheet that is very large in width..even bigger than A3.
The client says thay are going to print it on paper rolls or something.If the client wants to print on whatever we developers do not have a problem.
We just need to adjust the width and height as required and then develop the report as required.
To set the width or height from Object Navigator, Under Layout Model you can find Header Section, Main Section and Trailer Section, just set the width and height as required.
Hope this helps.
Best Regards
Arif Khadas

Printing report list output in A4 paper

Hi!
Is it possible to fit the list output of a report having a line-size of 240 into an A4 paper ?...when I was trying to print the output is being cut. Some columns at the right were not printed since all columns do not fit on the paper even on landscape. The system defaults format is X_65_255 which has 65 rows and 255 lines. How can I make it fit an A4 paper?
Thanks in advance!

Hi Mervin,
To make printing possible on A4 paper you'll need to define a new output format.
For this use transaction SPAD.
Press the button "Full Administration" (F7).
Select the tab "Device Types".
Press the button "Page formats".
Set the screen in Change Mode (press Change button or F8).
Press the Create button (Shift+F1).
Give a name (starting with Z, like Z_LAND).
Select Orientation "Landscape".
Set papersize width/unit to 255 CH
Set papersize height/unit to 65 LN
Save your work.
Go back to tha SPAD tabpages.
Press the button "Format Types".
Set the screen in Change Mode (press Change button or F8).
Press the Create button (Shift+F1).
Enter in the screen a format name (starting with Z or Y).
Set the format type to type L (Format type for ABAP lists).
Set the page format to your created format (like Z_LAND).
Enter the number of lines that can be printed on A4 (e.g. 65)
Enter the number characters (columns) that can be printed on one row on A4 (e.g. 255).
Give a comprehensive comment.
Save your work.
Go back to tha SPAD tabpages.
Select tab "Devices / servers".
Press the button "Output devices".
Select your printer.
Set the screen in Change Mode (press Change button or F8).
Go to tabpage "Tray info".
Choose the right tray for your selected printer and fill in the previously created page format.
Save your work.
Leave transaction SPAD.
This format can be used to print your reports.
Remove your own printerdefault (Via menu System --> User profile --> Own data, tabpage Defaults).
When printing a dialog appears where you now can choose the modified printer (with modified page settings).
As you can see, this is more of a job the the admin guys.
As a remark: The default page formax X_65_255 should print 255 columns on paper (landscape). Most likely a small character set is used for this. The character size can also be modified (in the same transaction) to fit an entire row.
Hope this gives you a clue where you can influence the way lists are printed.
Regards,
Rob.

I am unable to select the collate option to print reports. This a problem when using duplex printing

Attempting to print multiple copies of a report using duplex printing

Selecting paper size in the first sreen tellis iPhoto what papery you are going to use - it does not tell the printer what paper to use - printer specific options on on the last (second or third if you customize the print) screen where you tell the print any specifics like paper source (typically printers need to you tell them where a specific paper is loaded - they do not really know the sizes in each paper tray)

IE opens during Print Report (HTML)

I am using Labview 8.5, "Print Report" with HTML type. When I execute the VI, Internet Explorer (I have IE 7.0 installed under Win XP) opens up and stays open until I manually close it, even after the Print Report VI completes.
Has anyone else had this behaviour?
I am using <Table style="page-break-before: always"> <TR><TD></TD></TR></Table> tags to build a formatted report.
Is it possible that I have a bogus HTML tag?
I use Print Report with HTML (Labview 8.0) with Internet Explorer (IE 6.0 under WinXP) and it just prints silently. I much prefer that type of opearation.
Is there a known difference between Labview 8.0 and 8.5 for this behavior? Could IE 7.0 operate differently than IE 6.0?
I would appreciate any help here.
Solved!

Hello EdH,
Are you using the same code in 8.5 that you had in 8.0?

Print Report using ASCII command through printer selection available on windows

Hi,
I'm using Labview 2009 to create a report using Report Generation Toolkit.
Creating a report is not the problem, the problem is I need to print the report manually by sending an ASCII Code.
I noticed that there are few example on send ASCII code command, but neither of them are related to printing.
The printer I use is Panasonic dot matrix printer KX-P1121E with USB port. (Fanfold type of paper)
I used "NI_report_lvclass: Print report.vi" from Report Generation before this to print my report, everything is okay and not receiving any error.
But I noticed that after finish printing, the paper will automatically feed out as if that VI (Print report.vi) is sending out "Form Feed" (FF) Command to the printer.
My application cannot use this method because I need to print a set of data in every minute. If the data only have 2 rows, then it will be a wasting a lot of paper if everytime finished printing paper feeding out. I want the printer to continue standby on the same paper after finished printing previous data. In other words, maybe just manually send "Line Feed or Carriage Return" to the printer.
So I have a few things need to be clarified step by step;
1. How can I send an ASCII Code to my printer? Do you have any example for this? link below is the character of ASCII Codes that can be use :http://webpages.charter.net/dperr/links/esc_p83.htm
2. Can I send a report created by report generation to be printed using this ASCII command method?
3. If my printer is setup by using windows (Meaning: Available on "Printer and Faxes" list), How can I configure the printer setup in sending the ASCII Code?
Really appreciated your reply
Thanks!

Hi Zwired1,
Just to make sure I fully understand the situation - I am assuming since you say you are printing to two different printers that when you are using the Print Report.vi you are using the printer name string to specify which printer you would like to print on. And if the printer that you specify is not functioning it automatically prints on the other printer, is that correct?
From looking at the code in the Print Report.vi, it looks like if you specify a printer name in the input string, if there is a problem with that printer or if that printer is unavailable, the VI should not print anything, so please let me know if that is not the behavior you are seeing.
For your question about checking the health of printers, there is a VI in the report gen toolkit called Query Available Printers. You can find it if you open up the Print Report.vi and choose the Standard Report instance, the Query Available Printers.vi is on the block diagram of that VI. It will return the list of available printers and the default printer.
I hope that helps,

Print report does not work in built mode (LV7.1+XP)

Good morning,
I've read some threads about the topic in this Q, but no solution. So my hope is that NI has resolved the problem. Here it goes:
In normal edit mode I can use the Print Report.vi (using the default win printer) to print out some data. The generated report is a standard NI report (that is NOT HTML).
When building an application this no longer works. No data is passed to windows (the printer icon in the system tray never appears) - and hence no output on the printer!
I use WinXP and LV7.1 in both modes. The printer is a HP2300 LaserJet but I've also tried using the old stable Canon LBP 8 II on the FILE: port - but in .exe mode the file box does not appear.
I really hope that NI has a solution
for the problem since we need the built application on several client. And we do not want to pay for several LV licenses.
Speculations on both the application builder and report generation tools have been given in previous threads... However, these gave no solution and all threads are from before LV7.1.
Thanks in advance!

Are you sure you checked the "NI R
eport Support" under the Advanced
button of the Installer tab in the application builder?
