Remove Printer Name from Crystal Report

How can i remove the printer name from the Crystal Report so that the PrinterName property of the CRAXDRT.Report object in the RDC SDK is blank WITHOUT having the "No Printer" Option checkbox checked?
Here's the scenerio.  When I first create a Report and don't go into Page Setup, PrinterName property is blank.  If I go into Page Setup and explicitly select a printer, PrinterName property equals the name of the printer selected.  If I check the "No Printer" checkbox in Page Setup, PrinterName property is blank.  But if i go back in and uncheck the "No Printer" checkbox in Page Setup, the PrinterName property equals the name of my Windows Default Printer.

I'm still not sure what is unclear about my first question.  And I'm not sure how any of the info you are requesting is going to make any difference in answering my question.  And I'm not sure how your analogy fits here but ..
Version of CR = 11.0.0.895
CR Service Packs applied = None
Web or Win app? = Win App
OS? = Windows XP Service Pack 3
Development language?  = Both Visual Basic 6 and C#.Net 2008
Method of CR files deployment = email the .RPT file to a client
Where were the runtime files downloaded from? = Runtimes are installed from Merge Modules donwload from SAP site
What is the version of the craxdrt.dll on the deployed box? = 11.0.0.893
So here are the exact steps so you can understand what is going on:
I have the Crystal Reports Application open side-by-side with my Visual Basic development environment in debug mode so i can step through the code using the RDC SDK.
1. I open the Crystal Reports Application and create a brand new report - "Test.RPT" and DO NOT go into Page Setup at all and save the report.
2. In my Visual Basic development environment, i run the code that will generate the report, Here's the exact code
    Dim m_crApp As CRAXDRT.Application
    Dim m_crReport As CRAXDRT.Report
    Set m_crApp = New CRAXDRT.Application
    Set m_crReport = New CRAXDRT.Report
    Set m_crReport = m_crApp.OpenReport("Test.RPT")
3. When i look at the PrinterName property in the CRAXDRT.Report object, it is blank.
    ie. crReport.PrinterName is equal to ""
4. I reopen the Crystal Reports Application with report "Test.RPT" and go into Page Setup and check the "No Printer" option.
5. I go back into my Visual Basic development environment and rerun the code that will generate the report.
6. When i look at the PrinterName property in the CRAXDRT.Report object, it is still blank.
    ie.  crReport.PrinterName is equal to ""
7. I reopen the Crystal Reports Application with report "Test.RPT" and go into Page Setup and uncheck the "No Printer" option. I have NOT specified any printer, nor have i clicked the "Printer..." button to setup a printer....i have just unchecked the "No Printer" option
8. I go back into my Visual Basic development environment and rerun the code that will generate the report.
9. When i look at the PrinterName property in the CRAXDRT.Report object, it is now set to my WINDOWS DEFAULT PRINTER, yet i had not specified any printer.
    ie.  crReport.PrinterName is equal to "
MyNetwork\MyPrinter"
PROBLEMS:
1. The client needs the report to go to the default windows printer of their machine
2. If the "No Printer" Option is checked, the Report does not print at all
3. If the report is set to MY default windows printer and i give it to the client, at times it takes upwards of to a minute for the Print Dialog to disply.  As i've read on other forum posts, it appears Crystal is looking for MY printer on the clients machine and takes a minute before i realizes it can't find it and then sets it to the CLIENTS default windows printer.
4. The client believes it is unreasonable to wait a minute for the print dialog to appear ...and i agree.
5. I cannot change the code to use the Select Printer in the RDC SDK - it's a long explanation why but just suffice it to say that i cannot do this.
All i want to do is either:
1. Remove the Printer Name in the actual report from the Crystal Reports designer - basically undoing what Crystal did when i went into Page Setup.
2. Via the RDC SDK, be able to detect the "No Printer" option is selected. Checkign CRAXDRT.PrinterName equal to "" is not an option.

  • InfoView not defaulting print settings from Crystal Reports XI

    I have a form/report created from Crystal Reports XI published to InfoView that has the print settings set for the manual tray when printed. When running the report in InfoView, it does not default to the manual tray when printing. I am publishing directly from Crystal Reports. I have the Process/Print Setup 'Set layout to: Report file default' and the Schedule/Format 'Use options saved with report' checkbox checked. I am not finding any other settings to tell InfoView to use the report page layout/printer settings. Anyone know of any other options I should check? Thanks!

    That would be the correct forum as this one is for SDK issues only.
    If you are not getting helped on the other BO forum you may want to consider creating a case if you have a valid support contract.

    Hello Glenda,
    as you refer to the legacy technology I recommend to post this query to the [Legacy Application Development SDKs|SAP Crystal Reports - Legacy SDKs; forum.
    This forum is dedicated to topics related to legacy SDKs, including the Report Designer Component (RDC), OCX, VCL, and Crystal Reports Print Engine (CRPE).
    It is monitored by qualified technicians and you will get a faster response there.
    Also, all Legacy Application Development SDKs queries remain in one place and thus can be easily searched in one place.

  • How to print directly to Printer from Crystal Report Viewer ?

    Hi All,
    We are integrating our Java Web Application with Crystal report XI, currently using JRC and export to PDF for user to preview and print to local printer.
    Now there is new requirement :
    Some clients is using thin client terminal (no harddisk, only has OS +Browser in ROM), so I cannot install Acrobat Reader for them to preview&print the report.
    So I am looking at  Crystal Report Viewer, the question is : Can I print from Crystal Report Viewer directly to local printer without first converting it to PDF (because I can't have acrobat reader installed) ??
    Thank you very much,

    Hi,
    It can't be achieved through XI.
    JRCXI R2 SDK offers the ability to print the report server side
    using the PrintOutputController using printReport(PrintReportOptions printReportOptions) method.
    Here is the code(for XIR2):
    import="com.crystaldecisions.reports.sdk.*"
    import="com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.lib.*"
    import="com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.document.*"
    try {
    final String REPORT_NAME = "Inventory.rpt";
    ReportClientDocument reportClientDoc = new ReportClientDocument();
    reportClientDoc.open(REPORT_NAME, 0);
    //Create and set print options.
    PrintReportOptions printOptions = new PrintReportOptions();
    //Note: Printer with the 'printer name' below must already be configured.
    printOptions.setPrinterName("
    10.10.45.220
    BOBJ 2C");
    printOptions.setJobTitle("Sample Print Job from JRC.");
    printOptions.setPrinterDuplex(PrinterDuplex.horizontal);
    printOptions.setPaperSource(PaperSource.auto);
    printOptions.setPaperSize(PaperSize.paperLetter);
    printOptions.setNumberOfCopies(1);
    printOptions.setCollated(false);
    PrintReportOptions.PageRange printPageRange = new PrintReportOptions.PageRange(1,1);
    printOptions.addPrinterPageRange(printPageRange);
    //NOTE: If parameters or database login credentials are required, they need to be set before.
    //calling the printReport() method of the PrintOutputController.
    reportClientDoc.getPrintOutputController().printReport(printOptions);
    reportClientDoc.close();
    out.println("Successfully sent report to the printer.");
    catch(ReportSDKException ex) {     
         out.println(ex);
    Please revert in case you have any query.

  • Printing font Barcode3of9 from Crystal Reports XI

    I have an issue with printing font Barcode3of9 from Crystal Reports XI utilizing Manhattan Associates Performance Management (PM) UI application.
    The font is applied to a field that is converted from a number to a text using the CStr formula in Crystal Reports XI in order to display the value as a barcode.
    The barcode on the report is converted successfully in the PM UI 100% of the time.  However the business tries to print the report using the print or the export the report functions and the barcode is not converted 100% of the time into a barcode only the value of the field displays.
    The font is installed on the server that the business accesses and I have installed the font on the web server for our testing environment, but it still does not aide with fixing the issue.
    Does anybody have any experience with this issue?
    Thank you

  • Printing from Crystal Reports Viewer

    I have an issue with a customer demanding to print Post Script from Crystal Report Viewer.  When we print using the PS driver we get the form, but the data is blank.  If we use PCL the report prints fine.  Is there any recommendations for using PCL or PS.  Customer says that Crystal reports are Post Script driven and the PS driver should work.  Any help with this would be appreciated.

    Thank you Mariellen for posting the solution.
    Also note that we have only tested the Zebra Printer with the Zebra Print Drivers. I worked with their developers and they said all drivers use the same under laying code so they should all work.
    The other requirement is you must define your paper size in the driver config tool for each size you are going to use, have a separate Printer defined on your PC.
    Thank you

  • CR2008 Not enough memory while exporting reports from Crystal Reports 2008

    dsReport = null;
    GC.Collect();
    GC.WaitForPendingFinalizers();
    Can someone help me resolve the issue.

    The .rpt file size is 14MB with the Data Save option enabled, 12MB without Data Save.  Presumably the 12MB file size is because of the 24bit PNG we have as our background.
    The Designer executes the report in less than a second and we can scroll through all pages and see the image fields perfectly.
    When we Export to PDF, the Designer takes a long time, eventually gets to the 77%, the 7th record and returns "Export report failed" followed by "Memory full".  If we export only page 1 of the 3 pages, it also returns a Memory full error.  However, when the same report is run with only 1 page, that page exports to PDF but with a ridiculously large size and export time.
    The machine has 2GB of physical memory with an 8GB pagefile with Windows 2003 (latest everything).  The process runs up to about 1GB before reporting the memory full error.
    We've also tried a variety of other suggestions posted in the other thread with no success.
    We're happy to provide the RPT file to the Report Team to diagnose the problem.  Ultimately, we need to be able to produce a 15 page report with approximately 45 images.
    Our preferred scenario is fixing problem 2.  The CR Designer seems quite capable of rendering our report and printing it to our third party PDF printer in a timely manner with small size.  However, the API reports memory full.
    The API resides in a dedicated reporting web service with NO other code except for loading the report, setting parameters and printing.  When executing, it uses up to about 1.1GB before reporting the error.
    Are there any other suggestions for fixing what we have?  Are there known problems with large images in reports?  Do we need to lodge a formal support request?

    Can anyone let me know where is the problem?

    Actually, the question boils down to; does the framework support the fonts?
    I believe that my question re. this working in the designer was valid. The designer does not use the framework, so if it works there, it is either a framework issue or a runtime print engine issue.
    I believe if you use the code below, it will list fonts available to the framework:
    foreach(FontFamily ff in FontFamily.Families)
    System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine(ff.Name);
    For more information see kbase [1198306 - Crystal Report displaying incorrect font in Microsoft Visual Studio .NET|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/oss_notes_boj/sdn_oss_boj_dev/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/scn_bosap/notes%7B6163636573733d36393736354636443646363436353344333933393338323636393736354637333631373036453646373436353733354636453735364436323635373233443330333033303331333133393338333333303336%7D.do]

  • Does anyone know how to discard printer information from a report?

    Hello all,
    We've got several reports in which printer info is saved in the report.
    We would like to remove that info programmatically from the report.
    Does anyone how to do that and to save this modified info to the report?
    I would be pleased to be given a code example.
    I guess it should be something like the fragment below, but saving this to the report doesn't seem to be doable.
    printOptions.SavedDriverName = printOptions.DriverName = "DISPLAY";
    printOptions.SavedPortName = printOptions.PortName = string.Empty;
    printOptions.SavedPrinterName = printOptions.PrinterName = string.Empty;
    printOptions.PaperSize = CrPaperSizeEnum.crPaperSizeDefault;
    printOptions.PaperOrientation = CrPaperOrientationEnum.crPaperOrientationDefault;
    printOptions.PaperSource = CrPaperSourceEnum.crPaperSourceAuto;
    report.ReportClientDocument.PrintOutputController.ModifyPrintOptions(printOptions);
    report.ReportClientDocument.PrintOutputController.ModifyPrinterName(string.Empty);
    report.ReportClientDocument.PrintOutputController.ModifyPageMargins(0, 0, 0, 0);
    report.ReportClientDocument.PrintOutputController.ModifyPaperOrientation(CrPaperOrientationEnum.crPaperOrientationDefault);
    Thanks,
    Henk Spaan.

    Hello Henk,
    You could simply check the 'No Printer' option in the report.
    From designer check File --> Page Setup --> No Printer.
    Or do it programatically.

    Hi all,
    I am using SAP Crystal Reports for Enterprise XI 4.0 (SP2 Patch 6). We have 2 independent Intelligence & Processing Tiers installed with their own CMS services. However, temporarily we are using only 1 common WAS Netweaver 7.3 for both CMS (when we connect to CMC/BI Launch pad we juts type different CMS name). Both of them are on same patch level, etc.
    My problem is that when I try to connect to BO Enterprise (BI 4.0) from Crystal reports, I am unable to specify to which CMS it has to connect - since it take the Server name and not the CMS name. It automatically connects me to only 1 of the CMS while there is no chance to connect to another (it might have somewhere recorded the CMS name). is there a chance to choose between those 2 CMS to which Crystal should connect?
    Thanks!
    Erik.

    Erik,
    You should specify the name of the server where BOE is installed. You can use the FQDN or even the IP address and the port name.
    Regards,
    Julian

    I am working in migrating my cr application to 10th ver from the existing 8.5 where we have to explicitly make a query in query builder and then attach it. I was using dsn in ms odbc for oracle driver to connect the DB. Now in 10.0 i have removed the query file created using 8.5 query builder and trying to write directly to command editor. the report as stand alone is working fine. but when i try to generate the pdf using my vb application then on .export option it is giving error as "Logon failed.

    what else is missing . plz help.....

    Well, you can migrate, you can not upgrade (semantics I suppose). E.g.; the RDC was deprecated in CR XI r1 and retired in CR 2008. Thus there is no way for you to upgrade to version 12 of the RDC as there is no such thing. So, from here, you have two options: migrate / port the app to .NET, or Java SDKs.
    Re. RDC, see my blog here:

    For porting the app to .NET, see this article:
