Report not printing error

Hi all :)

We are evaluating the VCL version and trying to print a label on a Dymo 550turbo printer.

While all applications, even a text editor can print on the printer, this report solution can't. I receive an error message "printer not currently printing". A job is placed into the spool - but not printed.

How can I fix this?

I already played around with page orientation and other settings in the print dialogue - without sucess.

any other windwos application can print on that printer without setting any parameter. even the windows "test page" mechanic can ..


Any idea?


Thanks,

Alex

  • Added:

    When I try to print the same label with the tool (from the website) "Report Viewer for VCL" (prepared with my Delphi App) the printing works fine.

    So it seems to be a problem with the Delphi printing system .. (even the preview app within Delphi does not print)

  • And:

    It's not a Delphi problem. When I use the delphi standard printing system, everything works as good as other Windows Apps.

    Printer.Canvas.TextOut(40, 100, 'Test"); 

    So the bug must be inside this report library ..
