Duplex Printing

rbuser

Hello,
We want to print two copies of a report to a duplex printer. When we print
the second copy, the first page is printed on the back of the last page of
the 1 copy of the report. How can we make the 2nd copy start on a fresh
sheet of paper.

Hi Kevin,

You can work around this issue by placing an empty section style subreport
inside the summary band of your report. Then inside the
DetailBand.AfterPrint event, you can assign the visibility of the subreport
depending on whether you have an even page report or an odd page report.

procedure TForm1.ppDetailBand1AfterPrint(Sender: TObject);
begin
ppSubreport1.Visible :=((ppReport1.AbsolutePageNo mod 2) = 1);
end;

ReportBuilder 10.05, the latest release, automatically prevents this from
happening by automatically generating a blank page for the case in which a
report generates an odd number of pages while duplexing.
