[Dxbase] Re: One more observation on the printers

Mon Aug 30 23:03:20 EDT 2004

Sandy and all,
Over the years that I have tried to make the various reports and labels,
etc .. the "one thing" that has always plagued me - is the various
printer configs and the non-conformity/non-standardization that we
all have seen when it comes to the outputting of the various reports,
etc to our various printers... This one item has kept all of us from
being able to see and print the various things "exactly the same" as
the other user ... I am using a Lexmark 5000 InkJet printer - and
Bill is using an Epson C82 -- I see 40 rows per sheet and he sees 39
per sheet.. Yet - there is "no one thing" that can be done to
accomodate both of our printers "equally" ...
TNX Sandy for your observation.
The only thing (I think) that could be done - is to customize the
report(s) for each user's printer setup .. That can be done - but,
is that the answer that all users would like to see?
