the print routine in fpw2.6 is infamous for 'losing' memory. we had a situation where one of our clients could print 50-60 invoices at a time before this happened. the original design had a loop around the report form to printer command (bad design). we replaced it with a report form to printer for [range of invoice numbers]. this took only one report command but would print until they finished (or hit a paper jam).
