I've looked at the approach of sending the data directly to the printer. The problem with this for us is that it bypasses the printer drivers, but the software is used by dozens of clients each with different printer setups. The amount of code that would be necessary to write so that it worked the same on all printers without the driver would make the project unfeasible. So, I think I'm pretty much stuck within the framework of the drivers. I presume you're talking about the ??? command.

The other solution I'm looking at is writing a C++ control to get the printer driver version number and the dates of the driver files, etc. This way, when we come across a printer with a known margin problem, I can change a variable to adjust the margins and pass it back to foxpro. But again, this is a lot of programming.

Thanks,

Zack
