There are three fields in the first record of FRX table which contains printer definition leftover from development workstation. Normally, it's considered as safe practice to remove them before building final executable, just to prevent unwanted printing if some user's workstation happens to have identical report mapping. The fields names are Expr, Tag, Tag2. The former one should be cleaned up partially only (you will see that only few first lines there are about printer). Latter two fields should be cleaned up completely. Again, it's only in the first record, and make backup before doing this.
