Printing from PAF 4.x

Legg inn av Steve Hayes » 07 jan 2006 14:22:02

I'm having a problem printing from PAF 4.x.

The printer name is greyed out, and I can't change it.

I can't find anything in the help fuiles on how to set the printer, and I've
looked under all the menus, but while there is a page setup, there is no
printer setup.

How do I select the printer to print to?

It prints to the Windows default printer. If you don't want that
printer, you have to go to Control Panel/printers, and select the one
you DO want as default, and then go back and change it when you're
finished. Awkward and decidedly non-win approach, but there it is.

PAF doesn't let you select a different printer from the print menu. You must
set the printer you want as the default within windows printer crontrol.

Actually I've just discovered one can set it in an obscure sub-menu.

The only problem will be remembering where to find it next time I want to
print something.

OK, will do -- but I've got PAF on my other computer, and will have to make a
note of which menues (if I can find it again!)

Right, found them now

Print --> Select Report --> Page Setup

At the bottom of the box are three buttons: OK, Cancel, Printer.

Choose Printer to get the menu to select the printer.
