Hi all,

I have a report designed with VFP's report designer that is really slow to print.

The report is being printed on a Fujitsu 3600 (old dot printer to print multi copies - ncr paper).

We used to print the report from an ascii file and performance was OK. Now we decided to change the format of the report (usual 8.5x11 now) and are using the Windows defaults to print. The report is now very slow to print. We are looking for a faster printer but in the meantime I'd like to improve the printing.

The report prints the same data and the font is Courrier. I must also say that a lot of bold font is used and some borders are being printed as well.

Could it be the problem ? Is windows forcing a font type? Is the printer being the problem ?

TIA.

P.S.: We have lots of other reports printing on laser printers and performance is OK.
