Hi Yelena,

Quick suggestion here - instead of DO WHILE() use Windows API Sleep function. BTW, I sent you a PM a second ago.

>We had a similar problem with Zebra printer. We were still developing with VFP8 at the time. In our case that sometimes without user’s interactions some random labels got skipped.
>We experimented with it and found that if print one label at a time with a pause in about 7 seconds in-between the problem went away, but we could not afford to make our user wait that long, so we created a separate exe for the label print we create a cursor with all the labels ready to get printed, converted this cursor into XML file and pass the name of this XML file into the new EXE file calling it using windows shell API. This way the user can proceed with their task while the print task was still printing the labels. I know it is not the most elegant or best of solutions, but it is working. I would be interested if you or anyone else can find a different way to deal with it.
