>>>Tim, what printer was used when you developed your reports? I ran into this with an HP Laser 5, and had to re-open all my reports with that printer driver as my Win95 default and then re-save them. Even wiping out the TAG and TAG2 fields didn't help. I decided VFP must think 'top tray' instead of 'default tray' on a one-tray printer.

Try wiping EXPR field also.
Take a look at it, there's a DEFAULTSOURCE statement in it.
This is maybe what selects the paper tray.

Before distributing my application I NOW always clear EXPR, TAG and TAG2 fields.
This way it uses the default settings of the user's printer manager.
