Mark, We print firstly the labels in advance. After, we stick manually a label on each mail. Then, the number and some mail informations are stored in a database. Le 11 sept. 2009 à 20:00, Mark Wieder a écrit : I'm afraid I still don't understand. Are you not storing the number and

If I put 250 documents for example in the tray and print 200 numbers, there remain 50 documents. And I need to print a number on these 50 documents, I can't wait a other day to put more sheets in the tray and print 200 numbers again. I'm going to try to use the read from file COM1: and see

Is it possible the info might be found in your printers manuel for errors it sends? Even if the printer sends an out of paper error it might only send it to the printer and you won't be able to read it from the port. If that is the case and you really need it you might be able to find a

I do not understand. If the fact that the tray is empty can tell you to load new paper, then why can't the fact that you just printed 200 sheets tell you to load new paper? The unused sheets are invisible. They are there only to allow Rev to manage the process, not the printer. They are a

Thanks Craig and JB. My problem is not to reload the tray but to stop printing the number (and stop increasing numbers) when the tray is empty. I was probably not clear. Sorry for that but english is not my native tongue. In my company we receive approximately 300' 000 mails during a

Jerome: Ah, now I understand. So the tray being empty is what really matters. How important is this task? It would be simple to make a small sensor that monitors the paper in the tray, and tells Rev to stop printing and do the bookkeeping. A number of possibilities come to mind, a light

Thanks Jacqueline for your answer. I thought of that. But the series start to 1 the first day of the year and finish the last day of the year. I cannot know in advance the number of documents to be printed. And I don't want to count manually pages before to put them in the printer. So, I

Tough one. He needs: repeat until the paperTray is empty As a workaround, let's say you knew that the maximum number of sheets that your printer could hold is 250. Why not print in batches of 200, say, with Rev stopping at that number. In this way you would not use an empty tray as the batch
