Janet,
Here's an example of how you can use the printer codes to print in landscape
mode:
SET VAR vLAND=(CHAR(27)+CHAR(38)+CHAR(108)+CHAR(49)+CHAR(79))
OUTPUT PRINTER
WRITE .vLAND
SELECT ....
or
WRITE '.................'
or
PRINT MyReport
OUTPUT SCREEN
Of course if you are just working with an R:BASE report, you can modify the
PRD file, such as HPLASER1.PRD. The codes would then be available under
Print Settings in the Report Designer and you could insert them into the
report wherever you wanted them.

| Janet,

| Try the following combinations:
|
| HP Deskjet/Inkjet Printers:
| --------------------------
|
| Compressed ON:
| <27 40 115 49 54 46 54 54 72>
|
| Compressed OFF:
| <27 40 115 49 48 72>
|
| HP Laserjet Printers:
| --------------------
|
| Compressed ON:
|
| <27 40 115 49 54 46 54 54 72>
|
| Condensed OFF:
|
| <27 40 115 49 48 72>
|
| You may also want to refer to your printer Reference
| Guide for very specific escape sequence codes.
|
| Have Fun!
