To print in text mode (fast printing on dot-matrix printers), I used @...say many years ago, but eventually I found it more convenient to use "?" and "??". Eventually, I created an entire text-file (this helps for easy preview), and sent the entire text file, plus printer codes, to the printer with the "???" command.

In this case, you can send printer codes to set the page size - read the manual for your specific printer.


The other option is to print in graphics mode (slower on some printers, but it works on all printers that work with Windows).

In this case, it is more convenient to use some other option for your reports, for example:

The Visual FoxPro report writer.

Excel Automation.

Crystal Reports.
