Your problem stems from the fact that VFP saves the printer information in the report itself for the system the report was created on. In VFP9, you can clear the check box that saves that information. When modifying the report, it's in the FIle menu/Page Setup.../Page Layout tab. Uncheck the Save Printer Environment checkbox.
