Try to remove the Printer driver information from your FRX files.
Open your FRX file as table and blank tag and tag2 fields, also remove the lines containing driver and device name of the printer e.g.
use myrepo.frx
go top
BLANK FIELDS tag,tag2
REPLACE expr WITH STUFF(expr,1,AT('ORIENTATION',Expr)-1,[])
use
compile report myrepo.frx
