Printing to dot matrix printer using continuous sheets

Hi;
Can anybody help me;
We have a web-based application.We have developed it with java and jsp. We want to print out several bills to continuous sheet.We are doing printing out with internet explorer and getting first page arranged but the following pages are sliding down.
Is there any way to print out to continuos sheet with dot matrix printer through java

You mean you want the browser to do that? Frankly I don't think you are likely to succeed, but possibly using CSS (with an "@media print" section) might work. Specify fonts, font sizes, try to control everything that can be controlled through CSS. Note that this has nothing to do with Java.

Draft mode is not by font. It is a specific printer mode. If you can not manually setup the mode, B1 may not have any abilities to print in this mode.

Printing in Dot Matrix Printer

Hi to all,
As we know that the dos matrix printer supports dos prompt and thus printing speed and
life of the printing head is comparatively more than what we print the same in graphical format.
So when I tried to print from SAP Bone in dot matrix printer, the printing speed is very slow and quality of printout is not good enough.
Any clarifications on this regard would prove very helpful to me.

Do you use one of this printer types:
Dot Matrix, Printer, Needle Printer, Citizen ProDot 300 , Oki Microline
, Epson FX880, Epson FX890 ?
Here the stepwise I have tried :
In order to print using Dot Matrix printers, follow the below
instructions:
   1. Run SAP Business One.
   2. Click the upper menu 'File' and select 'Page Setup'.
   3. The Print Setup window opens. Under 'Paper', in the field 'Size', select 'Letter' from the drop down menu.
   4. Click OK to confirm your selection.
   5. On your desktop, click Start => Settings => Printers.
   6. Right click on the required Dot Matrix printer and select 'Printing Preferences...'.
   7. Click the 'Paper/Quality' tab page and click the 'Advanced' pushbutton.
   8. Under'Paper/Output'=> 'Paper Size', click on the underlined paper size(e.g. A4) and select 'Letter' from the drop down menu.
Note that if you leave the value 'A4', each page will be spreaded over 2 pages when printing using Dot Matrix printers.
   1. Under 'Graphic'=> 'Print Quality', click on the underlined value (e.g. 230X250 dots per inch) and select '120X144 dots per inch' from thedrop down menu.
Note that in case the value '120X144' is not available you should select a similar value from the list.
After you do the stepwise, I am sure there will no problem any more. The slowly printing mostly caused by printer type and your hardware specifications for example your LAN, etc..
good luck...

Problem printing on dot-matrix printer with continuous paper

Post Author: kdebruyckere
CA Forum: .NET
Hi,
We're currently developping an .net application for a customer of ours in VS2005 (c#). I used crystal reports for VS2005 to create an invoice.
The invoices have to be printed on a dot-matrix printer with continuous paper (Brother M-4318). When an invoice is only one page long, there's no problem. Even when printing several sigle-page invoices after another, all goes fine. The problem occurs when an invoice is more then one page longe. The first page comes out correctly, but on the following pages everything moves ca. 3 mm upwards (3 mm on the second page, 6 mm on the third page, and so on...). On the report 'Design > Printer Setup', I selected the right printer, the right paper size, ... On the report there's a page header (consisting of two sections), and there's a page footer that is only printed on the last page, but there are no report header and no report footer.
I can not figure out what seems to be the problem. Has anyone else had this or a similar problem before? If so, please let me know. Any suggestions are welcome.
thx

Continuous paper is a little bit longer than normal A4 paper. I found only one way to set it: ReportDocument.PrintOptions.PaperSize =CrystalDecisions.Shared.PaperSize.PaperFanfoldStdGermanI had no success, setting continuous papersize by printer setup. ... waiting for CustomPaperSize-Property (like CustomPaperSource)...

Hi All,
I have problem with dot matrix printer (Devise Type EPESCP) while printing continuos printing. If i am printing 2 or more than that prints at a time, 2nd page is printing 5 lines up.

\e\0x78\0x01
# select non-proportional spacing

Can any one help me.
Thanks,
Vishnu

Hi Vishnu,
Above you have the following commands:
set line spacing 6 LPI
\e\0x32
set page length 86 lines
\e\0x43\0x46
46 HEX = 70
So the above settings mean 70 lines at 6 LPI = 11.66 inches.
So is the paper length 11.66 inches? If not, you should adjust the settings accordingly.

hi,
Have you customized PLD according to paper size ?
Check whether you customized fields in start of report area ? If yes then it will be printed
only on first page.
Check for printer supported by B1 in below link

Print to Dot-Matrix-Printer

Hi,
My actual job is to create an Report in Oracle Reports 10, running on an IBM AIX Unix Server and direct the output to an Dot-Matrix Printer.
The Report is ready for Preview.
What Parameter should be set as Report_DesFormat for that Dot-Matrix Printer?
I found only the list HTML, HTMLCSS, PDF, RTF, POSTSCRIPT, XML but the Printer can not unterstand any of these formats.
Thanks for any help
Rolf Mamat

Hi.
Using one of graphical destination format can lead to unexpected results. What you should do is to configure your printer at the system OS level. Then you should include that printer into $ORACLE_HOME/guicommon/tk/admin/uiprint.txt file. The line you add to this file should be read as printer_name_you_specified_at_os_level:ASCII:1:some_comment:: For example :
my_dot_printer:ASCII:Testing printer::
Be aware of two colons at the end of the line.
For a destination format you should use one of predefined formats (dflt, wide, ...) or you can make your own format file which should be stored in $ORACLE_HOME/reports/printers directory. And dont forget to define your report design in character units.
Hope this answers your question.
Best regards.

Sales invoice Smartform printing in dot matrix printer in sucession

Dear all,
I am trying to Print Sales invoice on Dot matrix Printer.
My First Invoice is printed ok, but if i try to print second invoice without manually adjusting the paper the alignment on printer goes haywiered.
Do we have some option in smartform where we can trigger new page command.
Regards,
Gaurav Sood

Hi Amiya,
you need to check the paperformat which is used. I'm pretty sure that there is a wrong paperformat selected. The supported paperformats are published in the official documentation of the printer-model.

If you are using the 2005 version you can use also the Epson FX-890.

Page not printing on Dot Matrix Printer

Dear Experts,
I had requirment to print the PO layout on a stationary which is bigger than a4 and bit lesser than a3
I found that page as 370(Width) and 295(hight). So according to it I created a new page format in SAP coz I didnt have any page format near to it. For setting up the new page format I did these steps:
1) Page Format
2) Format Types
3) Device Types.
All these are done. also I have attached my Z smartform in the NEU output type in NACE.
Now when I excute SF and try to print that its not getting triggering on the printer.
I have taken printer as LP01.
Please suggest. Where I am wrong.
-=Soni=-

Hi,
You need to assign the created page format to the device type used. Which device type is defined in output device LP01? Also if it is a device type with Line Printer Driver II, you also need to add the commands in the Printer Initialization action of the page format within the device type with commands to tell the printer the length of the page.
See the thread Re: DOT MATRIX PRINT is not coming correctly

Crystal Report printing on dot-matrix printer

Hello,
I've developed an application using VB.NET and Crystal Reports in VS2008. The report generated gets printed correctly on modern laser or inkjet printers. However, the entire formatting gets affected when I print these reports on dot matrix printer. Apart from that. the print speed is very slow. I tried exporting the report to PDF, DOC and other formats - but no solution. There was Export to Text function, which is not working in Crystal Reports now.
After a research on this issue, I found out few links to some solutions - which actually doesn't work. These links are as follows:
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/forums/en-US/vscrystalreports/thread/e24a8084-ad53-48bc-a7d5-065ef82636ac
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/vscrystalreports/thread/dd506c66-4cdc-48a7-9fa8-2c6f14daef24/ (Same issue in C#)
I've seen some software, in which, when Print on Dot Matrix (custom menu option) is selected, data is sent to DOS mode and reports are printed from DOS mode.
Is there any solution for this? OR DOS mode is the only solution?
This is high priority issue. Even though we're moving ahead in IT industry, govt. still depend on 4 color dot matrix printer reports.
Waiting for solution
