Thanks Sergey,

We already tried the drivers and there were none for 2000 so... But the client tried printing with an NT4 box and all went well. Crisis over for the moment.

Thanks again,

KeN


>Most likely the problem is with printer driver. Try to use another driver to see if it makes any difference. You can also change your report in Page Setup to use Whole Page insted of Printable Page so printable area reported by printer drive wouldn't have such effect. You'll have to reallign all the fields on the report accordingly.

>>I have a client that recently changed OS from NT4 to 2000. Since then printing to preprinted forms has been a problem. The specific issue is 1099's which are preprinted 2 up on 11" fanfold forms.
>>
>>The VFP6 report layout prints a summary report in which the group footer (that has the 1099 layout) is set at 5.5 ". Last year, under NT4 they printed fine. Under 2000, I cannot get two records on the same 11" form unless I reduce the footer band size to 5". Then, of course, the second 1099 prints one half inch too high. We are using the exact same printer (Okidata dot matrix) and the exact same report.
