Robert,
There are few threads about this. Options are a lot, report to file ascii, setting printer to file and getting "image" of printout, using Adobe Acrobat activex to generate PDF etc.
My simple 2 cents idea about it, if applicable, instead of reports, "data snapshot" could be zipped and emailed and the receiver side might have frx(s) to generate them again. This would also provide a freedom for different printer models. ie: for "image" files output might be PCL6 format but my printer only support up to PCL5.
