Printing Short forms in Windows XP Professional

If you are using Windows XP Professional and would like to print short forms on a Dot Matrix printer, you will need to make some changes to your printer settings and to the report in R&R Report Writer before it will print properly.

To modify a Reporting to the MAX short form so you can print short forms in Windows XP, follow these steps to set up your printer:

Open the printer settings window by selecting the Start menu and clicking Printers and Faxes.

The Printers and Faxes window will appear. Right click in the window and select Server Properties. The Print Server Properties window will appear.

Select the Create a new form check box and, in the Form name: box, enter a meaningful name such as "CMS Short Forms".

In the Form description (measurements) section, change the Width: box to 8.50in and change the Height: box to 7.17in.

Select the Save Form button. The form name should appear in the Forms on: list box.

You have now completed the creation of a new printing form. Select the Close button to close the window.

Now that you have created a new form for printing short forms in Reporting to the MAX including Point of Sale and Non-profit Versions, you need to adjust some printer settings for the Dot Matrix printer you want to print the short forms on.

To adjust your Dot Matrix Printer settings, follow these steps:

In the printer settings window, right click on the dot matrix printer you want to set up and select Properties from the menu.

Select the Advanced tab and change the driver to Generic/Text Only.

Select the Device Settings tab.

Set the Cont. Feed - No Page Break to the form you just created. In the previous steps we named the form "CMS Short Forms".

Set the other options to Not Available.

Select the General tab.

Select the Printing Preferences button.

Select the Paper/Quality tab.

Change the paper source to Cont. Feed - No Page Break.

Select the Advanced button.

Change the paper size to the report form created above. In these steps we saved it as "CMS Short Forms".

Select OK.

Select OK or Apply.

You have now completed the proper set up for the Dot Matrix printer. The next step is to use R&R Report Writer to save this printer to the report to use as its default printer.

Open the short form in R&R Report Writer. You can do this by opening R&R Report Writer within Reporting to the MAX including Point of Sale and Non-profit Versions and then selecting the short form report you want to modify, or you can open R&R Report writer and find the report in the Laser, Matrix, or Other folder.

Once you have opened the report in R&R Report Writer, select the File menu and select Page Setup. The Page Setup window will appear.

In the Size drop down list box, select the name of the form we just created. In this case we saved the report as "CMS Short Forms".

Select OK.

Save the report.

You have now successfully created a custom printer form for printing short forms and attached it to the short form report you want to print. If you are still having problems printing, contact Reporting to the MAX Technical Support.
