CanGrayScale

edited August 2011 in General
Hello,

why did you remove code for determining device capability "Black and White"?
Version 10.06 of Reportbuilder includes code for setting CanGrayScale
according to printer capabilities.
In later Versions it is removed without a note. Now our customers loose
their coloured Text when printing to, say, a Fax Printer Driver which prints
Black&White. Hard to figure out when those three lines of code were removed!
Are you going to include them in new 12.06 Version? What was wrong with
them? Do i have to manually set this Property and determine device
capabilities???

Kind regards,

Wolfgang Hanke

    Hi Wolfgang,

    This code was removed due to the fact that is was causing issues with
    numerous printers. We left it up to the developer to determine the
    capabilities of the printer used in order to manually set the
    CanGrayScale property of the printer.

    Best Regards,
