Hi,

I'm doing an upgrade from a FPW 2.6a system and am trying to print checks on an EPSON DFX-8500 (using an EPSON FX-1050 driver, which Epson says is required to print non-standard forms).

When printing in 2.6a, the text is printed in the same place on the form consistently.

In VFP 9.00, the printout 'drifts', i.e., it moves up higher and higher on each page.

We've defined the forms as 8.5" x 4.25" as in the old system.

I'm running w/Report Engine Behavior set to "80 (Backward compatible)" (set both in the TOOLS, OPTIONS menu and set explicitly in my start up code).

I've started over w/the report and used the 2.6 FRX and i still see the same problem.

I'm getting desperate! any help/input is appreciated!
