Teststand report and reciept printer

Hi,
We are using a reciept printer for production test of product.
Reciept printers use a roll of paper. Page length can be any length.
Teststand insists on sending form feeds at regular intervals, no matter what I set in the printer driver.
In this case, a formfeed advances the paper, and cuts it with a built in cutter.
Thats right, long test results end up in several pieces.
While we can just turn off the cutter, a better way would be to modify the report, preferrably in the XLS style sheet.
Any hints or suggestions?
Thanks,
Jeff

Hi I have a couple of questions.
1. What version of TestStand are you using?
2. What is the report format you are using?
3. How are you printing the report ? using the print button or printing the report from some other application?

Interactive chart in report and PDF printing

Dear all
is it possible to generate a chart (via an interactive report) and save that chart in PDF format? At the moment when I try and do this in my application I just get the raw data saved as PDF, not the actual chart.
Many thanks
Paul

Hello,
If you want to have charts in your report, the best
way I know of is by using BI Publisher Desktop to
create your rtf with a chart, upload it to your
report layouts and call a report query with that
report layout.
Marc Sewtz did a nice post about it:

t-is-often-asked-about.html
or you can check my blog for the bi publisher
configuration.

Hi Dimitri
unfortunately we dont have BI Publisher Desktop (as I think you have to pay extra for this :) ).
I take it that there is no freeware (or other way) to allow us to save the chart in PDF format?

NI Report and HTML printing

Here I have described a problem with the NI Report VIs and printing HTML report on different machines.
I have made a small app just printing a page with "Hello World" on it. This app was generated on my Windows XP Prof. SP 2 machine at home. My IE version is 6.2.2900.2180.xpsp_sp2_rtm.040803-2158 and the Active-X component used is shdocvw.dll version 6.2.2900.2180, 04.08.2004 13:00.
The archive contains the app and all sources in LV Version 8.2.
I want to know from you if this app will run on your machine. Please report if it did or not together with the information which OS you are using and which IE version you have.
It seems that this VIs want run reliably on all machines.
Thank you for all those who are reporting.

I have tested the app on 7 machines in the office. We have 4 LV installations were it worked and 3 which give error 1 in "Print HTML using IE.vi". 6 Installations are on XP Prof. SP2 and one is Windows 2000 SP4.
All XP machines should be the same because we have them generated from one image and we have a central system update here. I think I have to make a look to see any differences.

Integrating an Exisitng multiple page PDF file into a report and outputting as one PDF

Post Author: sditmer
CA Forum: Crystal Reports
We would like to be able to PDF files into a report based on a file name contained in the detail of the report. For Example, I have some data in our database relating to a specifc PDF file including the name of the PDF that I would like to print in the header of the report and then print the actual PDF as the detail of the report. The PDF may be multiple pages so I would like the remaining pages of the report to follow on each page of my crystal report. Essentially I am trying to merge a report header onto a mulitple page PDF file as a single report. Is this possible to do out of the BOX with Crystal? Do I need some other tools to do this?

CA Forum: Crystal Reports
Consider a 3rd-party tool as a solution (for a list of such tools, see http://www.kenhamady.com/bookmarks.html).My Visual CUT software allows you to automate the process of merging the pdf export of your reportwith a pdf file named based on a formula in the report. The resulting merged pdf file can automatically be printed or emailed.

Error trying to print report to both pdf and network printer

Hi all,
When trying to print a report to my network printer or to pdf I get the two errors attached, one right after the other. The resulting pdf or hard copy has almost everything in it, except for three tables which are completely missing. When I go back into the report and open the page with the missing table, the table is no longer visible in the report and I get the second error again. Exiting and restarting diadem brings the tables back.
I've found several threads about pdf and other print errors and tried the solutions there to no avail; specifically the one posted here.
I hope there is a fix to this! These reports are intended to sell management on diadem! Thanks!

Hello testingHotAir,
Just to make sure, do you have administrative privileges for this machine?
Also, you have attempted these exact steps as posted by lerman?
Make sure that you are logged in as Windows administrator.
Click the Windows button and click Printers.
Right-click the Diadem pdf Export and select Properties
Click the Ports tab, then click the Add Port button.
Note: If the Ports tab is greyed out, right-click the Diadem Pdf Export icon and select Run as admin.
Select Local Port and click the New Port button.
Enter PDF1 for the new port name and click OK. Close the Printer Ports window.
Put a checkmark in the box next to the PDF1 port if it is not already checked.
Click on the Advanced tab.
Select the Spool print documents radio button to make the options below it clickable.
Clear (uncheck) the box labeled Enable advanced printing features by clicking it.
Select the Print directly to printer radio button to make the options below not clickable.
Click the Apply button, then click OK.
Important: In order for the changes to take effect, you must restart your computer.
Reboot your computer and then try to print, email, or create a pdf from Diadem.

However, have you tried choosing the landscape print format on your printer preferences via the File -> Print dialog?

Report serial number printed and serial number detected do not match

The serial number provided by the Printer Status Report and the serial number provided by the "Auto Scan and Find" feature off the web site do not match where the scan detected one removed the last 4 characters. Is this known to the firmware folks that generate the report? Firmware version = ELM1CN1320AR for an HP Photosmart 7520 series.

Hi depineault,
Yes, HP is aware of this. If ever call HP or want to check your warranty online, you would need to use the 10 digit serial number not the 14 digits. If you look on the back of the printer you would see a sticker with the 10 digit number there too.
Check your product warranty
Is there a reason you were looking for the serial number? Is there something I can help you with?

Daily & Monthly Backlog Reports and Printing program

     <b>Labeling program for Deliveries</b>: This program picks all deliveries created/updated on the current day, validates them by checking whether they have the required labeling information. If the program finds that the labeling information is missing, it populates WMS structures (header & detail) for further.
     <b>Daily & Monthly Backlog Reports and Printing program</b>: This program calls 2 separate reports (Daily & Qtrly. Backlog Reports), based on user selection, and directly prints the reports as well as converts them to PDF format and emails them as attachments to the MD.
          Please provide me the solution.

For First program :
Use table LIKP (SD Document: Delivery Header Data) & LIPS(item Data) for fetch inf all the data for selected date use field ERZET(Entry time) & ERDAT(Date creation of record) for created deliveries & refer TABLES - CDPOS and CDHDR for modified deliveries
For Second object:
Call multiple programs by using SUBMIT <program> with selection screen params.
Print as per requirement by passing print parameters to Structure PRI_PARAMS &
   call function 'GET_PRINT_PARAMETERS'
   exporting destination = liprintr
             mode        = 'CURRENT'
             no_dialog   = 'X'
   importing out_parameters = pri_params.

Print PDF, 5 different reports and send pdf to 5 emails to different people

Hey Forum experts.
Here's my question.
In Apex 3.0, I know that we can now print to pdf. Woohoo for that feature...
Can we print to pdf 5 different reports.
and then email those 5 different pdf outputs to 5 different emails?
Can it be done?
and then can it be done by having everything all called from one procedure or one method etc
Does anyone have an example of this ?
Thanks
Colin Mackenzie

Sending emails can be done using Oracle XML Publisher / BI Publisher. We use that product for rendering report regions and report queries, for any more advanced printing needs, you will need to use the product directly.

Run a report and have that report print to several printers - font

Hello,
In 10g, want to use the distribute=yes and destination parameters to run a
report and have that report print to several printers. The destination file is
an XML file that sends the output to printer. The distribution actually works
but the output comes out as a very very small font. Its the correct data but
one would need a magnifying glass to see.
Regards,

Any ideas?
If i print at one printer, the font on the paper(report) good, if i printing at more printers at the same time, the font is really small!!
Tnx,
