Default printer overridden?
Default printer overridden?
Hello,____I^ve noticed on a couple of occasions that both R&R Report Designer and the runtime files print to a printer that has somehow been "saved" with the report as opposed to the default printer. I am using R&R XBase version 8.0 in a Terminal Server environement. I can^t seem to find where the information about the printer is stored nor how to reset it to the default printer. Any suggestions you have as to how to resolve this would be greatly appreciated as things sometimes print out at the wrong location and such. You can imagine how popular that is.

The printer is indeed stored with the report.__In runtime you can select the Default printer by setting RI_WPTR to Default in your control file.__In the latest Version 10+ release (but not in the earlier V8) you can force the designer to use the default printer in place of the saved printer by setting PRINTER=DEFAULT in the Defaults section of RRW.INI.____Alternatively you can create a dummy printer that will never be available on a user^s machine and save each report to that printer.__Then when a report is opened and the dummy printer cannot be found, R&R will then default to the user^s default printer.____Kathleen__R&R Support
