Hi Jim,
Here's how I do it:
set var CopyTo = 'Customer Copy'
PRINT InvoiceLaser WHERE OrderNo = .ordno option printer
set var CopyTo = 'Remittance Copy'
PRINT InvoiceLaser WHERE OrderNo = .ordno option printer
set var CopyTo = 'File Copy'
PRINT InvoiceLaser WHERE OrderNo = .ordno option printer
Where CopyTo is a variable in my report

Jay, Karen, Bernard,
We use paper that comes in four colors that is carbonless but each sheet is
separate.
They are put in a regular copier (not printer as such).
I use this code on another report:
PRINT KPRShiplist_Logo WHERE CONTROL# = .vControl# +
ORDER BY CONTROL# MODEL# MATID# PARTNUM +
OPTION PRINTER +
|TRAY BYPASS TRAY +
|COLLATION OFF +
|COPIES 4 +
|PRINTER_NAME \\K-SERVER\KONICA MINOLTA C351 PCL
I want to be able to continue using this code but on the report itself I want
a single variable that will print as mentioned below based on the page number.
This report would print only one Bill (4 sheets) at a time so the page count
would always be one - four pages.
Page one: Original - Not negotiable
Page two: Shipping Order
Page 3 & 4: Memorandum
I notice a system variable #PAGE. Can I use this to accomplish what I want?
I hope that clarifies what I want.
Jim

Jim, I think I would continue with the dot matrix printer and paper as you
still need a dot matrix printer to print on carbonless paper. I don't know of
anything but a "hammer type" printer can be used to get through to the fourth
copy. You could use a selectric typewriter printer but the good old pin feeds
keep things very straight.

I am creating a Bill of Lading report.
We have two options:
Use our existing, pre-printed, track-feed forms used with a dot matrix
printer.
Use our existing paper feed printer with 4 part-blank carbonless paper.
I am leaning toward the four-part carbonless paper so my question has to do
with the page header.
We want each page of the four-part paper to have a separate heading like this:
Page one: Original - Not negotiable
Page two: Shipping Order
Page 3 & 4: Memorandum
Any suggestions?
Jim
