    Printing Automatically Cancels

    I have a few reports which when sent to the printer, the printer seems to have a hard time printing them, then it automatically cancels printing and spits out the partially printed page.



    This has recently started happening. I don't know what is causing this.

    Any idea?

    Thanks in advance.

    more than likely it's a problem with your printer. a setting perhaps? I would doubt it's a print spooler problem, as that's usually on or off. and it's off you don't get any partials of anything.

    It prints my other reports just fine. Its only a few that it has a problem with. It happens on other printers too. It starts printing them very slow like a slow photo printer, and then I see on the printer LCD the message changes from "Now printing" to "Printing canceled".

    Like I said, the same happens on another printer too. I am thinking it has to do with the size of the report, it has some images on it. I am going to reduce the size of the images and see what happens. But then again, it recently started happening. The only things I have changed is made the database compact on close, and turned off Track Name autocorrect.

    Even if I switch back to the original setting, I still get this issue.

    Thanks

    I have now noticed that it happens on the reports that are not regular paper sizes such as Letter or A4. These reports are custom sizes, actually index sizes 3x5, 4x6, 5x7 etc.

Please reply to this thread with any new information or opinions.
