That is weird.

The only way I know to set the properties is the the Page setup option that is in the file menu. You have to add this option to your menu in the exe and then use it like you would in word. It manual, but its the only way I know how.

I know it doesn't help much. Sorry.

To make it even more strange, we force the default paper size for those printers to be 8.5" by 5.5" (trying the printer in WORD it comes exactly to those default 8.5" by 5.5"...)

>No problem for the printer to print that paper size wich is define as a custom paper size; if we manually choose the paper size at the printer prompt, then it prints fine. Also if I choose to print from the very exact workstation (for a local installation) or from the server(for lan installation) where I design (or last modify) the report, then it work fine(meaning the default paper size is OK and print well).

>The problem really comes when I try to print from another workstation, FoxPro recognise the printer name as being a valid name (we've being very carefull to name all local installation with the same exact name) but it does not recognise the paper size as being a valid ones and brings it back to US letter.

>With prtinfo(2) I can get the printer default size for any printer available in foxpro, do you know if I can set that derfault size in FoxPro.
