Sending report to a printer other than default
I have a report that requires i send it to a printer that can do 2 sided printing, i have 2 such printers (canon iR600 series) when one printer is busy with a big print job i want to allow the user to select the second Canon to print to...
however... in order for me to guarantee that the 2 sided property is set all the time i have to go into the reports page setup and select the 1st printer then select the 2 sided property, then save the report...
once i do that i can no longer redirect this report to the 2nd printer.. it always prints to the 1st printer...
i have tried the following to no avail:
1) set prin to name getprin()
2) mprinter=getprin()
set prin to '&mprinter' ..or.. set prin to (mprinter) ..or.. set prin to
defa and then set prin to (mprinter)
3) =sys(1037) ..to let the user select the available printer and set the 2
sided option..
4) replaced the EXPR field in the report with the 2nd printers info and then
blow away whats in the TAG and TAG2 fields
when i change the page setup to my default printer (hp 5000) then i can print to the 1st and 2nd Canon printers but it doesnt change or save the 2 sided printing feature, so it always prints one sided....arggghhhhh....
i am running VFP 6.0 on a win98 client using a winNT network.... if i have missed anything obvious i would appreciate some input and direction, thanks!!!
happy thanksgiving...
