Razzak: That's not my problem -- I WANT to get thousands of pages. I have thousands of monthly statements to print out. Back when the client upgraded to 7.5, I converted the 6.5++ windows report, made no changes to it because it converted fine. But when going to the printer (the same workstation / network laser printer that is used in 6.5), 7.5 would print maybe 300 or 400 and then stop with the error message. We tried it about 5 times and it would stop in different places, never at the same point.
Obviously this is hard to test. Takes alot of waste paper and alot of time to go through 300 copies and then have it stop. So I'm hoping for some actual experiences that this works great in current 7.6, or some tips in either printer setup or computer setup or changes to the report itself so that it can print as wonderfully as it does in 6.5. Since the report was originally a 6.5++ report, we have no graphics in there. A few lines and boxes but no pictures. One-page report. I also considered turning this into one 2000-page report, rather than 2000 one-page reports, but has anyone tried printing out a 2000-page report?
