Reportbuilder and Terminalserver

edited April 2014 in General
Hi!

We are running our program in a terminalserver environment (Windows
2008 R2) and have a problem. When we generate a Report than we see on
the printer in the terminal session that it has about 50K Size.
And when it comes to the printer on the real Client it has about 2MB
Size. So printing is very slow.

When we generate a PDF (also with ReportBuilder) and show them on
Screen and than print it to the same printer it has 50K in the session
and on the client it is also the same size. So it is rather fast.

So whats the difference when RB is printing and when Adobe Reader is
printing?

Any hints, what we can do, that the print is faster?

We are using no Images, just text and only one copy.

    Its an Easy Print issue. You need to i) turn it off, and then ii)
    install the printer drivers for the remote printer on the Terminal
    Server, since Easy Print is no longer there to manage the printing
    process. We found this article useful for how to turn Easy Print off:

    The above is copied from a posting I made in a thread in this NG. Nard
    replied with more links on Easy Print.

    Additional Info:

    It seams that this 'error' is only with ReportBuilder and when we use
    the 'line'-Component. A small example with line makes a neary 1 MB Size
    spoolfile, without line the spoolfile is 20KB.

    Any Idea what we could do to avoid this?
