Hi Timothy:

PMFJI: If you haven't already seen it, a recent thread: "Landscape printing without the Report Designer Thread #252011" covers your problem, pretty well. Essentially it bypasses the ability of windows to 'eat' any attempt to send info directly to the printer port, by using a 'RawPrint.Vcx' you can find here.

HTH
