Printing a report on a network printer

  • Follow


I am having a problem when printing a filemaker pro 7 (WIN) report on a 
networked printer HP LAserJet 4600 color (WIN 2003 Server)  with FMS 7 
Advanced.

The print job is cancelled by FM when a print script is executed from a work 
station.

BUT ... when the print button is clicked on a computer that is not networked 
and running the database on the local machine then the report prints OK on 
the local printer connected to the stand-alone computer.

Is there something I am missing ... do you have to make some special 
settings in FMS??? etc.

Advice would be greatly appreciated.

The printer you are printing to must be setup on the client that is 
initiating the print job.

Make sure "page setup" and "print" are set to show dialogs, that should 
help track down whats going on.
