edited February 2008 in Devices
Hi all

I am new to the newsgroups, i am having trouble printing reports to a new
printer a HP LaserJet 1600 as a network printer. Keep getting the error
"Floating point Overflow" i thinks its trying to use A16000IP.DLL.

Thanks in advance for any and all help.

    For future reference please always specify environement info: Delphi
    version, ReportBuilder version, Windows version, database connectivity, etc.

    I am guessing that you are using an old version of ReportBuilder. Try
    downloading a trial version of the latest release from our web site and
    peform the same test.

    The printer overflow errors are caused by poorly written printer drivers -
    these errors started appearing in the last couple of years. By default
    Delphi catches overflow errors and throws an exception (MS compilers have
    overflow checking turned off by default - therefore the errors are
    suppressed by other apps such as MS Office, etc).
