Thanks Bernard,

 

Karen mentioned the same thing and I implemented it.

Thanks to both of you.

 

Jim

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
