For reasons I've never understood, QR regenerates the whole
report for the printer so I think you actually do have a shot at
detecting that you are "preparing to print" vs "preparing to
preview".
I haven't actually played with it - but there is an event
TQuickRep.QRPrinter.OnGenerateToPrinter
that fires before the preparation that is destined to go to
the printer.
Not sure - but a reasonable attack might be to supply
your own handler in this event to set a flag that your
band/field events could examine to determine if you're
destined for the printer.
