DUPLEX

rbuser

Hi

we are working with Delphi 7 and RB 10.06

One of our Customers has changed his printer from an IBM Printer to
Kyocera FS4000DN ...

Now our Duplex Function isn't run.

PrintLogic : Page1 Duplex on
Page2 Duplex on
Page3 Duplex off
Page4 Duplex on
Page5 Duplex on
Page6 Duplex off

and so on

With the Kyocera printer every Page ist duplexed.
thats wrong

With the IBM Printer the first Page is duplexed (Page1 and Backpage Page2)
and the third Side isn't duplexed
(Page4 and 5 duplexed, Page6 no duplex ... and so on)
that is the correct operational sequence

Do you know if the ReportBuilder has DUPLEX Problems with some Printer
Drivers ?!

THANKS in advance

Hi Anton,

ReportBuilder uses the built-in Windows API structure DEVMODE to get and set
the device settings such as duplex. It is the job of each specific printer
driver to honor these settings if they are changed.

1. Be sure you are using the latest version of the driver for the specific
printer you are using.
2. Try tracing your code to be sure the proper events are firing and
setting the duplex property at the correct time.
