Reports 3.0 Printing on Dot Matrix EPSON-LQ1170

Hi,
I have a problem while printing the report on EPSON-LQC1170.
When I am printing a report first page prints very fine, before
printing the next page it feeds 3 lines then prints the next
page. After printing first page it does form feed properly after
the form feed it lives one line blank & start printing next
page. your earliest solution will be highly appreciated.
Note :- when I print the same on laser printer it works very
fine it doesn feed blank line.
Lets together make the difference.
thanx
best regards

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)...

Distorted printing to dot matrix epson LX-300 printer

the problem im having is the same as the one mentioned here:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windows/en-US/ab12901e-4b1e-4a25-bdb6-25c2c4f576e8/ie8-dot-matrix-printing-issues?forum=itproxpsp
the basic problem is that when i print from a computer to an epson LX300 printer using firefox the spacing between letters seems distorted. you can find the image of the problem on the link above.
the only difference is that they are talking about using IE 8 while im using firefox 26. the user Joel-MMCC made the best explanation of the problem except that firefox is not running on trident. but it seems to be exhibiting the same problem at random. i have about 10 computers on my network but only 2 are having this problem. and i could not for the life of me figure out why.
when i tried the work around of changing the print resolution from the default 120x72 to 120x144 it seems to fix the problem except that the printout fonts and letters are now too far spaced. and since our webapp is already optimised to print on the 120x72 resolution and because we have fixed continuous forms that we print to, this work around will not work for me.
i tried installing IE9 on the troubled computer and it seems to work. the only problem is our webapp is optimised for firefox. certain javascripts dont work on IE.
im really at the end of my wits here. any ideas?

well, i have this same problem too. my only solution is to not install most driver.
@akinga: i agree, i thing it's somehow related to vga driver, and it seems only affect the new intel's. the old ones work just fine with all driver installed.

Matrix report in condensed mode in dot matrix printer

How can we print a 10g matrix report in condensed mode in dot matrix printer? The dot matrix printer is a Epson LQ 1070+ printer. I am tried using a printer definition file and given printer codes in the report. The printing is not taking place in condensed mode. This method however is working for other reports. Could any one help?

Hi all,
This is to inform that I have myself found the solution. It is possible to print matrix report in condensed mode. The method for printing is same as for any other report. The mistake I made was not checking whether the .prt file is getting referred correctly. The DESFORMAT system parameter was getting populated through the calling form. By referring to the correct .prt file the problem got fixed.

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

Also, as of Service Pack 3 Microsoft updated their security models so a new C++ runtime is required. Please see these Kbase articles and Forum posts for more info:

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.
Regards,

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...

Printing Cehques - Dot Matrix to Laser

Hi.....
We currently use a dot matrix printer for cheques created in SAP and now want to start using laser printed cheques.
Originally at SAP implementation it had to be modified to print to dot matrix printers - so we now need to revert back.
Any ideas as to how this is done? Trx SPAD?
Thanks in advance.......

hi
All Cheque print program are created by the Abapers using Smart Forms. So now you can ask your Abapers to make necesasary changes to the programs , Hence its possible to take print from Laser Printers.
Assign points if found useful

Crystal reports printing in dot matrix printer

I'm using Crystal Reports 2008 with Visual Basic.Net 2008. The problem is that when i print the report in a laser printer, everything is good, but when i used dot matrix printer (like Epson LX 300+), reports is printed smaller than original, doesn't matter if i see good in preview. This is an Asp.Net web form.
How can i fix this problem

1) Make sure you have the latest CR Service Pack:
SP4 https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100008782452011E/cr2008sp4.exe
SP4 MSI https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100008782532011E/cr2008sp4_redist.zip
SP4 MSM https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100008782522011E/cr2008sp4_mm.zip
2) Make sure you have the latest updates for the printer driver
3) Make sure the printer driver is Unicode compliant
4) Experiment with the "No Printer" option and Dissociate Formatting Page Size and Printer Paper Size option
5) Compare print from the CR designer to the app print. Do you see the same issue with both?

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.

Problem with chinese character for dot matrix epson LQ-1600K III

Hi All,
I really runs out of idea about my problem now. The problem is about Print Chinese character to dot matrix printer (Epson LQ-1600K III). I tried to so many device type to solve this issue, looks like the only device type can be use are CNSAPWIN and CNEPSON with CNSONG font type. The others if I print to the printer, the chinese character became # (although in the print preview it`s okay and display correctly).
Here is the bottleneck if I use CNEPSON:
- if I have 2 window at the left and right position, if the left window has chinese character, the right window automatically shift right about 1.5 CM, which is damn weird!!! Can somebody help me
- I tried so many ways to adjust the line size for my detail window (to cater positioning at pre-printed boxes), but looks the font size always become 10pt and line size cannot be adjustable (based on smartstyle).BUT if I used device type epescp2, it can be done!
Here is the bottleneck if I use CNSAPWIN:
- I need to create format type in windows and SAP (SPAD). and every PC that use this printer, must define the Paper size ( China Special paper size 12inch)
- I also think this is not a good idea because as I far as I know this is not the correct way..
Therefore, if somebody has experience about printer chinese character to dot matrix for Smartform and sapscript..please kindly help me give some advice.
Do I use the wrong device type?
Thanks in advance!
Regards,
Willy

Hi friends , we are using the same model ....
Are you using the chinese version operation system ? because we can print the chinese charaters without problem in LQ 1600KIII .....
We are using CNSAPWIN device type + Frondend printing access method ....
