>I have reports (many) that print to many types of printers. I have just noticed today that when I print on an Okidata Microline 320 the report length is incorrect. There is nothing special about these reports-they have a page header and detail band and possibly a title and summary band. The same report prints on an HP4000 and Lexmark fine. However, when I print it to the Okidata, it extends to about 5 lines into the next page. It then starts printing the next page by printing the next page's page header about 2 lines down from there without ejecting a page. It thinks there is more space than there is on the paper. The report prints to 8.5x11. It does not require a special size. I thought perhaps it had something to do with the top-of-form function on the printer itself as it seems to start printing a couple of lines lower than it should too, but I set the top-of-form to the default factory setting and the same thing occurs. I tested the same report in FPD26 (the report
>originated in that version) and it prints fine. It will only print the correct number of detail lines to fit on one page in FPD26. I stripped out all of the expr, tag, and tag2 fields to no avail. I just noticed this today and I cannot figure out why this is happening to ALL of my reports. Any ideas?

Hi Tracy, this is a very well known issue to me since I'm very familiar with DM printers (they're pretty common around here). The problem you're describing is usually due to the page footer space left when you design the report. If the report is printing beyond the page size it means you have to leave a bigger page footer.
