Report won't print from 2 workstations

P

Paul Fenton

We have a network application, (front end mde file, back end mdb file)
10 workstations and we're having trouble with one particular report in
the application. On my development PC, I have the report set as
landscape, Legal (File, Print Setup, Page, Size). On most of the
workstations, the report displays properly. But on a couple of them
it doesn't

There are 2 pc's running XP that always open the report in Letter
size, landscape. What users would do is change the size manually from
File, Print Setup, etc, to legal and then print it. We have never
been able to figure out why just these machines won't open the report
in Legal size.

Now we have another problem with the same two machines. They can no
longer manually resize this particular report to Legal. All other
reports in the application, legal, letter, print just fine from these
two pc's and other applications (Word, etc) work normally.

Does anyone have any ideas about why this particular report behaves
this way on these 2 computers and not the others?

I have had some similar problems, for one make sure that a
default printer is select on the XP stations, two, make
sure the printer printer drivers installed and loaded on
these XPs are infact the XP printer drivers, and 3, make
sure all updates for XP are installed from MicroSoft.
Hope this helps.
