    Print preivew

    I have a report that looks great in print preview on my PC but is incredibly zoomed-out when viewed on another machine. Both PCs pull the current version of our application from an app server so I'm confused as to why the print preview looks so different.

    The printer and paper settings are correct on both PCs, and our thermal receipt printer works fine for both. The problem is that if I select a regular printer with letter size paper, it won't work because it thinks the data is outside the margins.

    How could this behave so differently when the same version of the app is being use on both PCs?

    what about screen resolutions. Different PC w differnt settings will show the report differently.

    Default printers too. PC 1 may have a different printer.

    Thank you. I'll check screen resolution.
    We have 3 reports, and each one has a different printer assigned to them (One for receipt printer, one for a backup receipt printer, one for letter size).

    I would think that the margins and printer settings saved to the report would move to another PC when the latest .mde gets pulled in. I'll keep looking.

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