Printing Across Multiple Labels

I have a requirement to modify a report that will print data in a designated format. The report was originally designed to accommodate five or less detail lines. Now I have to change the report to accommodate an indefinite number of detail lines that will print across multiple labels. The labels are 2 1/2" wide and 1" high with a Times New Roman font of 5 (small font, but acceptable). The top of the report allows two lines of data for a header. There is a subreport that allows 5 detail lines and a one line footer that totals the detail lines.
This design worked fine when there where only five detail lines. However, there can now be more than five detail lines and these print on the label, losing the footer. What I need to be able to do is to print these detail lines across multiple labels. There will not be header or footer lines on these labels until the last detail line is printed, at which time the footer will print.
I have not been able to figure out how to get labels to continue when the detail lines exceed a specified amount and continue on the next label.
Can anyone offer any assistance, please?
Thank you in advance.

Not much info including version of CR but think of it this way, and it may be printer dependent, rather than defining your label size as 2 1/2 x 1 set your page size to the size of a typical printer or a continuous form feed printer. Something that lines up with your labels.
For example is if you print to a laser printer you'll see the label header info and then the multiple detail lines ( this is the Detail section of the designer ) and it prints until no more data then you see the footers being printed.
So what you do is manually space your fields so it lines up with the labels and then it should print all detail lines. You will have to create formula to insert lines to adjust for any missing lines so the labels line up when the footers start printing. Example, you don't won't the footer to start in the middle of a label, unless that is what you do want.
Think of it like a Continuous form Printer rather than a label printer. Depending on the printer and labels being used I'm not sure it will allow you to create a custom paper size, if it does though and you'll have to test this, set it for the maximum length you expect your labels to be printed.
Hope this makes sense?
Thanks

Print across multiple pages

I am setting up a financial statement that will include monthly actuals & budgets. Is there a way to print this across multiple pages? I currenlty have it setup in Excel and even printing on 11x17 it prints across 2 pages.
I currently have XI but didn't now if the feature was available in this version or possibly in 2008.

hello E Hammer,
in XI to XI R2 you have 2 options:
1) use a Cross-tab as it can easily print across multiple pages.
2) try the workaround using the attached sample report...there are instructions on the report itself on how to create this "banner" style report. you do not need a special printer driver to do this. just to warn you in advance though, it's a bit of work.
in cr2008 it is much easier as you can use the "Disocciate Formatting Page Size and Printer Paper Size" option to create a report which would print out to multiple pages horizontally.
cheers,
jamie

Print multiple label in SAP BusinessOne

Hi,
Is there any way to print the multiple labels in single A4 size paper .
Thanks,
Y.

Hi,
If you are using Crystal Reports,
there is an option to create a report of label type. There you can specify you label size an create a format accordingly.
Then you can use a A/4 size for printing which will print multiple labels on one A/4 paper automatically based on you data.
Thanks

My report prints on multiple pages

My report which shows change requests by categories I setup and sort on prints across multiple pages. I do not want that. It is starting a new page for every catgegory. Where can I check to see what setting I have made (unknowingly) that tells it to start a new page for each category?
Thx

Assuming that you are grouping on Category, there are two places where it is possible to set this.
1. Right-click in the gray area to the left of the group header and select "Change Group". Go to the Options tab and verify that "New Page After" is not turned on. Close.
2. Right-click in the gray area to the left of the group footer and select "Section Expert". Go to the Paging tab and verify that "New Page After" is not turned on. You might also want to check other sections and verify that there is no paging set up elsewhere.

How do you split the print job across multiple printers to shorten the prin

i
Can any one you provide some information on below questions.
Check printing by XML template (XML Publisher).
1. When printing checks, how do you print the checks from one printer tray and the overflow remittance pages from another printer tray?
2. When printing a large batch of checks using XML and PDF output, how do you split the print job across multiple printers to shorten the print time?
I appreciate if you could give some information on above 2 questions.
Regards,
Ramarao.

Probably sould just do them individually.

Label Printing Using Address Book - How can I Print multiple labels of the same name?

Label Printing Using Address Book - How can I Print multiple labels of the same name?

I used to be able to print multiple copies of the same picture on one page using iphoto. There was a customise button when you went through to print and it was there somewhere. I can't see it anymore - maybe since an upgrade.
It's gone. But as a work-around, duplicate your photo (⌘D) to create as many versions as you want copies and select all at once. Then use the "Custom" print layout and set the photo size you want.
After printing, trash the added versions.

Enforce Default Printer Presets Across Multiple Users

Hi
Please could anyone tell me if there is a way to enforce the default printer preset across multiple users on the same computer for a network attached printer?
I want to make sure that all of my family who each have separate accounts all print using greyscale by default.
I would like to do this without copying plists about. I was hoping that there is some global way to do it as an administrator.
TIA

Hello Ian,
I did a couple of simple tests on this topic and from what I can see there is no easy way for this to be done. The preferences (plists) are being saved in each users preference, and depending on which printer you are using the located and format for this preference is not easily copied.
Unless there is a third party app (or something I missed) then I don't see a simple solution to this.
Regards,
Paul

Photosmart c3180 prints publisher 2007 multiple labels incorrectly

When printing with Publisher 2007 with the Multiple labels per page option, the first label prints fine but the next 5 has a mini border in the upper corner. When I print to a PDF printer, these do not show and the PDF image is perfect. this issue is with my Photosmart C3180. Drivers for this AllInOne is very up to date. Using Windows 7 Home Premium. I scanned the actual printout so you can see what I mean.

OK. Just installed MS Office 2010 with Publisher 2010 and it still does the same thing. It is either a simple publisher or printer setting. Also reinstalled the printer too. I know someone has a simple answer. Microsoft doesn't even understand my question.

PRINT ENLAGED IMAGE ACROSS MULTIPLE PAGES

I have a scanned image that I want to print at 4 times its original size across multiple pages. Is there any known way to do this?

Thanks for the info, guys.
I don't have InDesign installed. I'll consider installing it, but it's sad that we have to install an entire app to get functionality for Adobe graphics programs that even browsers offer routinely. Jeez, Firefox spans pages automatically.
If you have a graphic larger than the page and you don't opt to resize it, Photoshop should offer to clip the overflow or print multiple pages. And ideally, to print multiple pages with an optional overlap.
I would have thought this was in version 1. But then again, Photoshop didn't have a thumbnail browser until what, version 7?

Sapscript - print out seperate labels for multiple delivery items

Hello,
we do have an output type that prints barcode labels for deliveries (VL02n).
Now if there are more than one delivery item on the delivery, it will only print out a label for the first item.
How can I trigger that all items will be printed out on a seperate label each?
thanks
Anne

Hi,
Just open the script which prints the lables and check for the variable name used for label printing
Check the script for variables and pass the value to that avriables and those to be declred in your print/driver program.
when you call write_from in the loop there you give a window name what ever the value in the variable it will pass to script

How do I get AI to print a large image across multiple sheets of paper?

I'm pretty innexperienced with AI newer than a decade ago. Anticipating that the software would be able to print Artboards as sheets, I created my image to cover more than one artboard.
I've read various related help topics and I still can't get one image to print over multiple sheets without space between: i.e. borderless.
I begin by choosing a 8.5 x 11 borderless in media but it still prints with a border even with "Don't scale" or "Fit to Page" turned on.
I tried tiling with some trepidation because it requires "Ignore Artboards" to be on and wants to reorient the paper the other way if on auto-rotate. If I specifically specify landscape orientation that seems to fix the problem except for one thing: it still prints with borders! If I tile "Imageable Areas" which seems silly since the printer is perfectly capable of printing borderless, it will have to scale the image down a bit, which I don't want.
There are settings for "bleed" and "overlap" but those don't seem to be what I'm looking for and I don't need to waste more ink.

Try using the document setup from the file menu. You can set up the artboards to any size you want and cal include a negative gutter which will meant that with proper spacing you can get the file to print with the needed overlap and not have to use the borderless setting. Most borderless printers actually expand the print 1 or 2 percent to make sure that it goes beyond the paper. You might not want to do that.

Printing large Panel across multiple pages!

We are trying to print a receipt which has master panel consisting of more than 10 components(transaction panels) which are going to spread multiple pages. Is there a way to print this multiple page spanning receipt. I appreciate your response.

I don’t think you want to set the image’s width/height to the page dimensions. I think that will shrink the image to fit the page. If you leave the image as a larger size, FlexPrintJob should chop into enough pages.

Problem in printing the selected labels value in smartform-SD_PACKING.....

The problem is:
For any of the above function call,
The VBCO3 itself im getting only one label number, hence it is processing for only one, i want to know how to pass on the multiple

meaning i would like to know, in which internal table , i can get the list of all the selected HUs, so that i shall loop this function call inorder get the appropriate output.
kindly help me to sort this issues.
Points assured.

Dear Srihari,
I wrote above code in first label(now i deleted do-enddo) only.
first i am moving seven lebels data into seven wa's.
after that reading the first record and moving another itab(for printing at main window i.e. 8 label).
clearly, there is no space problem..because instead puttting all the required field i put only customer name.
Now it is printing well in first page with 8 labels(main window) also.
But in the second Page it displays only 7 labels and not printing rest of the labels.
for example my itab has 20 records it displays 8 labels in first page &
next 7 labels in second page and not print the rest of the 5 labels i.e. it is not calling third page(?).
code..
CLEAR : WA1, WA2, WA3, WA4, WA5, WA6, WA7.
loop at it_final into wa_final FROM 1 TO 7.
if sy-tabix = '1'.
    wa1 = wa_final.
elseif sy-tabix = '2'.
    wa2 = wa_final.
elseif sy-tabix = '3'.
    wa3 = wa_final.
elseif sy-tabix = '4'.
    wa4 = wa_final.
elseif sy-tabix = '5'.
    wa5 = wa_final.
elseif sy-tabix = '6'.
    wa6 = wa_final.
elseif sy-tabix = '7'.
    wa7 = wa_final.
endif.
endloop.
   delete it_final from 1 to 7.
**Push every 8th row if it_final in it_main
    read table it_final into wa_final index 1. "deleting 8th, 16th,... records
    if sy-subrc = 0.
      append wa_final to it_main.
     else.
      exit.
    endif.
*Delete the rows from it_main which are present in it_final
loop at it_main into wa_final.
    delete table it_final from wa_final. "deleting 8 th row from it_final.
endloop.

Bar code Printing for HU LABEL for RFID

Hi Team ,
It will be great help if anybody can suggest the steps i need to follow to create an HU barcode fr label printing.
The labels will be used in Warehouse for scanning using RFID .
Can anybody suggest me what is the use of Emulators in Label printing using Barcode.
I came across a software called ZEBRA which will be used for Printing.
Whether we need to use these sofwares in Barcode design also in smartforms or only while printing.
Please give me some idea on this.
Thanks & Regards,
Murali Krishnan

hi,
Probably some driver files are missing for teh Zebra printer.
