Removing Currency Symbol in PLD & Dot Matrix printer issue

Hi All
I need to know if its possible to remove the currency sysmbol on your print out. I'm printing on a pre-printed stationery and the currency symbol makes the lines to overlap.
Aonther question is , which font format can you select to for printing when you are using dot matrix printer (OKI Microline 3321 9 Pin Printer)
When its printing it's printing in bold and on the invoice after the second one , it looses the margin setting and prints on the wrong fields.
Thanks.

I tested the Amount function and it works perfectly for your need.
Add a formula field and in the Content Tab insert the Formula as
Amount(Field_198)
Here the Field_198 is shown as an example but you will enter the Field number of the amount field which currectly shows with the currency in your PLD.
For each such amount field you will need a Formula field to remove the currency symbol.

Hello,
There are some general known limitations with Dot Matrix printers.
For example, the BOX command is not supported with Dot Matrix/Line
printers when you use the dedicated device type. eg: device type EPESCP2
There are several other limitations to the device types that use the
STN2 driver(Line Printer driver II ) as described in the SAP Note:
19807 - SAPscript print problems with standard driver STN2
These problems with Dot Matrix printers can be overcome by using device
type SAPWIN with the Dot Matrix printers connected to a Windows system.
SAPWIN is also a page-oriented device type, which supports the BOX
command.
By using SAPWIN device type, you can use access method G (SAP note 821519)
or S (note SAP 894444).

How to remove currency symbol in PLD

Hi All,

Regards,
NN

Hi Rich,
Try this,
for example: Document Total - Field ID -> F_123
->> Open your PLD.
->> Create 1 Formula Field in Page Footer and put the below formula in Formula Field.
Amount(F_123)
OR
Substring(F_123,3)
IF you add currency symbol in Doc.Total field.
Formula Field=Amount(F_123)-> Uncheck Tick Mark in Visible at General Tab on Properties Window.
and
Doc.Total = F_123 -> put the Tick Mark in Visible at General Tab on Properties Window.

There is something I don't understand: if the barcode printed is visually correct, and exactly the same as with a laser printer, why do you want it would be better with a PDF (especially on a dot matrix printer).
Could you also tell us what symbology you use, and do you use smart form new barcode technology?

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

Laser and dot matrix printer

Hi ,
I have developed delivery note using smartforms when i see print preview of this form giving logical destination laser printer it is coming fine and print is also good. but as my client wants to take the form print both on laser and dot matrix so when i am giving logical destination as dotmatrix printer if i see print preview then the total settings are disturbed like boxes and also in print the box lines are not printing.
what i have to do to get good printout on both the printers.
thanks in advance.

Best idea to print your script on both dot matrix and laser printer is, create one table and allow user for maintainance, now before print preview go and check this customized table(using subroutines) and if laser printer, print all boxes... if on dot matrix remove what all lines not supported on dot matrix printer.
EX:
Go and fetch printer name from customized table,
IF printer = 'LASER'
***Draw boxes
***LINEITEMS
ELSEIF printer = 'Dot matrix'
***LINEITEMS.
ENDIF.

Hi Raje,
Try to take the print in inkjet or laserjet printer
just for confirmation purpose .
if it prints in that and doesn't print in dot matrix then the problem is with the dot matrix.
In that case ask the basis guys to install the relevent device driver for that dot matrix printer( as normally they would have installed some generic driver ).
Hope this helps.

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.

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.

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.

Aidan

yes. As long as it is a newer one (means not 15-20 years old). Do you have one? If so, provide the make/model. If you do not have one, which ones are you looking to purchase?

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.

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.

Problem with custom paper size on dot matrix printer

Hi All,
I'm using CR2008 with updated to SP2. I have a problem with custom paper size (W=21; H=14), the CR Viewer show report with custom paper size correctly but when I print it to a dot matrix printer (Epson LQ 300+) the content was rotated to landscape. If print to a laser printer the content was printed correctly. My report was printed correctly by CR10 or previous versions I got this issue when upgraded to CR2008. I aslo tested my computer and printer with orther application like MS Word the printing have no problem with custom paper size.
Thanks for any advice for me.
Han

Looking at the Epson LQ 300+ driver, I see that the latest update is from 2002. In my experience, most matrix printer drivers are not unicode. Crystal Reports is designed to only work with unicode printer drivers. See the [How Printer Driver Options Affect a Report|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/boc/index?rid=/library/uuid/a09051e9-721e-2b10-11b6-f9c65c64ef29&overridelayout=true] article, page 6 for details. Also, see [this|https://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.do] note.
Finally, see if you can print from the CR designer to this printer and if you get the correct results here.
