Continous form printing - pin feed.

Post by SteveFurniss_(Guest) » Wed Sep 06, 2006 4:31 pm

How do you go about printing to continuous forms like a log printer or something that prints invoices or checks on a continuous pin-feed printer? All formatting in R&R (I^m using Version 9 Xbase) seems to be "full page" oriented print configuration. In previous versions of R & R, you could select a specific page length in lines per page - 66 for example with 0 for top and bottom margins so reports would just print their content w/out generating extra lines or a form feed at the end. Each time the report was run, the specified number of lines would print to the printer and that^s it until the next run of the report. Can this still be done with R&R 9 and/or newer versions?

You cannot select page length in lines but you can select a custom page size in File Page Setup. Under XP, you set up custom page sizes using File Server Properties in the Windows Printer folder.__Once you set a page size here, it is then available in the Report Designer.____Kathleen__R&R Support
