If not already done, double check your printer driver version on the server and
compare with the work station. Also insure that bi-directional and advanced printing support is enabled on the server printer driver.
 
It sounds more like a driver issue.

Thanks,
 
I realize that I didn't specify the actual problem in my email.
 
The printer switches trays correctly but on the server, duplex does not work.  On the server, I can manually set the printer to duplex and it does duplex. The default duplex setting for the printer is none.

You need to use ampersand variables rather that dotted variables where you want to use the literal value and the variable is not on the right side of an operator.

 

SET VAR vprintername TEXT ='Kyocera Mita FS-9500DN KX'
SET VAR tray1 TEXT='Multi-Purpose Feeder'
PRINT nrecapl1 WHERE adv_no  = .vadv OPTION printer|DUPLEX HORIZONTAL|tray &tray1|printer_name &vprintername

 

SET VAR tray2 TEXT ='Cassette 1'
LBLPRINT labelsforadv WHERE adv_no  = .vadv  ORDER BY iss_yy DESC, iss_mm DESC, rs_no ASC,zp_code ASC, zp_4 ASC OPTION printer|duplex simplex|tray &tray2|printer_name &vprintername

 

Hopefully this will help with your problem.

Hi,

 

I am having a problem getting our printer to work correctly with a server.  The command prints a duplex cover sheet, then simplex label sheets. The following commands work correctly on a workstation but not on the server. Both have the same version of Rbase 7.1 and the printer  setup is the same, which is thru a tcp/ip port.

 

 

SET VAR vprintername TEXT ='Kyocera Mita FS-9500DN KX'
SET VAR tray1 TEXT='Multi-Purpose Feeder'
PRINT nrecapl1 WHERE adv_no  = .vadv OPTION printer|DUPLEX HORIZONTAL|tray .tray1|printer_name .vprintername

 

SET VAR tray2 TEXT ='Cassette 1'
LBLPRINT labelsforadv WHERE adv_no  = .vadv  ORDER BY iss_yy DESC, iss_mm DESC, rs_no ASC,zp_code ASC, zp_4 ASC OPTION printer|duplex simplex|tray .tray2|printer_name .vprintername

 

 

Is there a setting that I am missing?
