Printing report to direct print 9i

Hi,
I am able to direct print the reports on web using normal parameters...i.e. desname, destype and desformat.
When it prints successfully, it gives us a message in a separate browser window "The report has been successfully printed out"
And we don't want this message. Can anybody tell me to suppress this window and message ?
Command:
WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT('/reports/rwservlet?
report=REPORT.rdf&userid=scott/tiger@ora&
P_DEPTNO='||:EMP.DEPTNO||'&
desformat=htmlcss&destype=printer', '_blank');
Thanks,
Martonio.

Martonio,
if you use RUN_REPORT_OBJECT() built-in in Forms to print Reports then you don't have this problem.
If you request the Report directly from a Web browser, not using Forms at all, please ask the same question on teh reports forum here on OTN.

Forms-Reports Web : Direct print a file to a local printer

<p>For those people who are searching a solution to print their PDF Reports from the AS to a chosen local printer, let see this great Direct Print Java Bean from Casey Bowden.</p>
Francois

Hello,
If anyone is using DirectPrint java bean, maybe you can help us with this problem.
The issue we are facing is when we are printing Oracle reports that have non-standard colors.
For example, if field has light gray background it prints black instead. If field has black background and white text it prints black only, no text.
If field or frame line color is specified as anything but “No Line” (even as white), it prints black line color.
So even though report displayed on screen as PDF looks completely normal, when sent to the printer unfortunately does not.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you

Report Generation Toolkit V9.0.0 : Print Report.vi doesnt print

Hi,
i have migrated my Labview 8.5 Project with Report Generation Toolkit V1.1.2 to a Labview 2009 System with Report Generation Toolkit V9.0.0.
In this Project I use the Report Generation Toolkit for printing out a Standard Report with e few Tables and Graphs.
Now the VI Print Report.vi delivers the Error -41002 with the Text "Invalide Printer Name". I have, of course installed the propper Printer on the machine.
I don´t connect a string to the "Printer name" input of the VI, because i want to use the default printer.
In my oppinion, there´s a bug in the Print Report.vi: if you don´t wire the "Printer name" input, the vi should use the default printer, but in this case the vi connects the empty input string to the input of the method node it calls.
I fixed this bug, but the method node still returns the same error.
any ideas?
Thanks!
Solved!

Thank you for the link!
For some reasons i can´t find this specific article in the knowledge base (my browser is always rerouted to the german version of ni.com, because i am in Austria). I tried to search with the exact title of this article, and the error message string, but no results...
I have also installed Labview 8.5 and the "old" Toolkits on my new computer in addition to Labview 2009 and the "new" Toolkits and tested my program in 8.5. Here i got an error mentioning the margins and i had to change the margin settings for printing out, then in worked.
After reading the article, i have applied the same changes for the margins in the 2009-version of my program and it works too!
Problem solved!
Thank you very much!
PS:
I first wrote, that there´s maybe a bug in the new version of the Print Report.vi, but i´ve compared it with the old version and it seems to be no bug, sorry!
After all I decided to stay with Labview 8.5 for now, because of another problem:
it´s not possible to "save for previous version" from LV2009 to LV8.5 directly.
Laview crashes, when a VI contains an event structure as i found out by searching through the "known issues", and i have a lot of VIs with event structures!
I have to have the possibility to save my Labview projects for 8.0 and 8.5. The only way is to save for 8.6 and then save from 8.6 to 8.5.
That´s nasty and time-consuming!
Maybe a future update will solve this problem (without producing new ones)

How to print reports on local printer?

We are using the rwservlet to print the reports using Oracle reports 10g release 2 report server.
Is there any way to send the output to local printer directly instead of browser. The output is in PDF format.
Any suggestion/link will be appricated.

i have a group of reports, need to print at once. so planning to call the reports one by one from java using rwservlet as below..
1.http://localhost:7778/reports/rwservlet?server=rep_barcode_frhome2&destype=Printer&printjob=yes&desformat=pdf&report=/tmp/abc1.rdf&cmdkey=abc
2.http://localhost:7778/reports/rwservlet?server=rep_barcode_frhome2&destype=Printer&printjob=yes&desformat=pdf&report=/tmp/abc2.rdf&cmdkey=abc
N.http://localhost:7778/reports/rwservlet?server=rep_barcode_frhome2&destype=Printer&printjob=yes&desformat=pdf&report=/tmp/abcN.rdf&cmdkey=abc
Since it will have many pdf, so want to print directly to local printer to user. they will be accessing through Internet.
Thanks in advance.

How to set printer options when direct printing from Linux AS Sevr.?

We have a problem like this: Our app server is a 10g R2. We want to DIRECTLY print reports to a HP LaserJet 1320 PCL 6 which is attached to a Windows print server.
We can print the reports from the Oracle Forms (we use reports builder to create a PDF in a directory and then using HOST command we print it).
The command we use is lp -d LaserJet sicl_rcpdebtnt_5.pdfProblem is the printout comes with the top 10% of the page not printed. i.e. the printing starts from about 10% of the PDF. The header and top information is not printed.
We tried the scaling option: lp -o scaling=75 -d LaserJet sicl_rcpdebtnt_5.pdfBut that also has no effect.
What can we do to print the entire PDF in ONE page. When we open the PDF in Windows and prints it we have to say Fit to printer margins for the printer's page scaling property.
How to set this in command line Linux???

Since you are not printing directly from Reports (destype=printer) this is not really a Reports issue I guess. Maybe you should ask this in a Linux forum.
However:
we have to say Fit to printer margins looks to me that there is a mismatch between your Report design and paper format. Check page size and margins in Reports Builder.

Print report to POS printer

Hi all,
from my Form(6i) user opens report in PDF and after that they print it on POS printer(Epson). But problem is that paper printed have A4 format height, so how can I set up so that paper can be printed shorter?
All the time users cutting rest of paper...
Thanks in advance,
Vlatko

This may not help you, but we had an issue with missing fonts on a server. Some developers here used a helvetica font when creating the report on their local machines. When the file was executed on the server, the font defaulted to Arial, which is the first one in the list. There are all kinds of font directories and files buried all over the place in windows. Trying updating everyone you can find.

When using "Print Report" my default printer changes.

Hello,
I have the need to print two different kinds of reports to two different printers depending on which report it is. I use the Office toolkit and wire the correct printer for the report using the "Print Report" tool. However, each time I do this, it changes the default printer in Windows to the printer wired. I don't want to change the default printer just send the report to the specified printer. Is there a work around?
LV 8.0 through 2013, Win 7

Hi The Q,
a workaround could be to read first which the default printer is, then print your page with the printer you want and then reset the stored printer to default. The information which printer is the default printer can be read from the registry.
Hope this helps.

Print report to client printer from forms

Hi,
I need to print a report directly to a client printer.
There is a utility called ORARRP - Oracle Reports Remote Printing Utility.
But the document I saw was from Oct 2001 - so is this still the only and best option ?
I'm using RUN_REPORT_OBJECT in forms to launch the report.
This works fine when the DESTYPE is FILE and DESNAME = PDF
The PDF-outputt is then successfully shown with WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT
When changing DESTYPE to PRINTER and DESNAME to clients printername then report won't run. "Report filed with error message TERMINATED_WITH_ ERROR".
Is it possible to print directly to a client printer using RUN_REPORT_OBJECT ?
(Our client printers are not networkprinters)
Environment:
Forms [32 Bit] version 9.0.4.0.19
Report Builder 9.0.4.0.33
Reportsserver on linux
Thanks !
Sam

(Our client printers are not networkprinters)This means you cannot print from the server directly on the client printer with destype=printer, since the server cannot see the printer.
So, a manual print command by the user from the browser or the orarrp utility are your options.

Printing Report on client printer

Hi,
I am using oracle 9ids ( Oracle9i Developer Suite 9.0.2.0.1 ).
I have an application which call a report from a form module.
I run the application from another machine and that machine has a local printer installed on that machine.
when I give destype=printer in the parameter form and submit, it will not print the report.
What I have to do to print the reports.
Please let me know the solutions for this ASAP.
Regards,
Malay

The simplest way is to have your report output to pdf and then they can print the pdf. If you are trying to print directly to the printer without showing the report on the screen at all, then what we have done is make the local printer available from the network and then send the output of the report to the network name for the printer.
The problem is that the report is running on the reports server, not the local machine. The reports server doesn't know anything about the local printer of the client. To be able to print a report directly, the reports server has to be able to "see" the printer.

About mismatch in print layout in direct print and print preview and pdf!

Hi ,
I have created one smartforms,when I run the standard trasaction VF03 and select any output type and then when I click on print preview button,and then when I put PDF! in address bar ,the print preview will convert in PDF format,it will show output without bold and comes only in normal fonts.
Also, when I run transaction VF03 and direct click Print button, then it shows print as per requirement , but it overwrites some part on the end of page where company address is priprinted on stationary,so how can i show print format same in both condition without overwriting?
Thanks.

HI friend,
The one which is coming in the print (hard copy) is the correct one.
Print preview may be different.
So if the print is coming in overlapping format means check whether the windows are aligned properly. Because if you have given any data in main window and when it grows it over laps on another window.
If that's is correct check the printer settings for it. Only these would cause the print to be distorted.
Check this and revert back if you have any issues we will help you.
Thanks,
Sri Hari

Printing reports on two printer

Hi I want to print one report on two printers on network.how can I do that.One printer is located on Sales Dept. and other on Accounting Dept.Pls help me in this issue and notify me on my email:[email protected]

Khalid,
This error signifies that
Ther printer druver is not allowing to set all the needed properties to it whixch can be queried
The test does the folllowing
- gets the DocumentProperties from the printer driver using the windows api. stores it in dmField1
- fetches all the values from the result of teh document properties and stores it temporrarily
- Creates a newe printer instance
- Try setting all the documentproperties using the saved temp values
- Now queries the values from the new printer and saves it in dmField2.
- Both dmFiled1 and 2 are compared and they should be same.If they are not same, this error DT103 is raised. which utlimately menas that we are not able to set the necessary peoperties to the driver. This is a driver issue that it doesn't support the standard API
However, we have introduced high fault tolerance in 6i patch 10, that even with the error we try to rpint with the default document properties. so this may work also
with default tray/paperszie
Thanks

How can i print reports to different printer by use Trigger on table after insert

Hello,
Please can any one tell me how can i print (any message) to different printer (network & local printer) by use Trigger on table after insert.
regards,
Linda.

What you want to do cannot be done with PL/SQL, which does have any print utilities. However you could write something using Java Stored Procedures.
Of course the "different printer" bit will have to be data driven as triggers are not interactive.
