I'm following you, the printer controls specified by the report (the report memo .frt) are for the inkjet...but how do I set the printer for the report at run time? I use the the command: SET PRINTER TO NAME GETPRINTER(). Shouldn't that override the printer controls specified in the report memo? Or, how do I setup the report so it's printer independent?
Thanks,
Allen

>>Hi,
>>I am trying to run a report on an Epson LQ-570+ dot matrix printer but instead all I get are page feeds (aka. form feeds).
>>However, this report prints fine using my Epson Inkjet printer. I tried switching between the Windows driver and the driver Epson provides, but I get the same results. Yet, I can print out of this same dot matrix printer in other application (ie. Word and Test Print in Printer setup) just fine.
