Jos,

I have seen this before. It may be related to the printerdriver. You could try the following. Create a new printer with (for instance) HP LaserJet 5 and point it towards the HP4000. This means you will print with a downgraded printerdriver to your high-end printer. This solved the problem on our end.

Hope this helps,

Ron Brahma

>Hi Inge. Is it always the same record/memo field(s) that has the problem? If so then there is something about that particular memo, perhaps some invalid chars that the printer is misinterpreting. If it is not always the same record/memo but random then its something else that we need to consider.

>>I print a report to HP 4000N & HP 8150N with no problem. The report prints memo fields. My .exe is housed on a network drive. Users are set up with shortcuts to this .exe. I have no problem printing the report to HP 4000N & HP 8150N using the same .exe. But, some users have problem with it: some memo fields prints blank 1st line, but prints the rest of the lines fine (whatever is supposed to be printed as the 1st line: prints as a blank line, but the rest of the lines print OK). One particular user is using HP 4100.
