>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).

How about flushing the printer? Set Printer To, then Set Printer to LPT1. I used this approach to solve some problems on the pathworks network in the past. Also, is this bug documented? I can't believe MS does not have a patch. I know several patches to Win 3.x exist. I personally have never used any... The limit on number of print jobs is by design MS will tell U anyway...
