[DXBase] Label printing questions

2002年11月11日 17:08:25 -0500

Jack, I'm in the process of learning the label game, specifically QSO
labels. I did "Select Label Type" and then entered several contacts
from my log by clicking on "Call" and then the QSO Label icon. After 15
labels I tried to preview the label sheet before printing a test page.
Several problems:

1. I clicked the Printer icon expecting to see a preview as shown in
"Printing Label Projects" in the Help file. What happened was that
pages immediately began to spew from the printer-nonstop. After 6 or 7
identical pages (with all 15 labels OK), I tried to pause the printer
but pages kept printing. I pulled the stack of paper, put it back in
and more identical pages. Had to hard power-down the printer to reset!
I hoped to see a print command window first, don't want to have to ever
reprint an entire label job for lack of a "Print page 20 of 20" command!

2. Where are the font choices? There are seven folders in my DXB 2003
folder group, none contains fonts.

3. Where is the command to display the current contents of a label
database prior to printing? I should be able to pause for a while, have
a snack, then go back to adding labels (especially after a major
contest) and be able to check which contact was last added to the job.

4. Where is the command to clear the current label database? I'm still
practicing before printing actual labels, so will do some customizing of
the label, then purge and start over.
