I get an access violation when printing a custom page in landscape mode

edited December 2003 in General
Hi,

When I print in landscape mode a preselected paper size everything is ok.
The report has only a few lables for testing.

If I change the paper size to custom with custom width and height, and try
to print I get a message:

Printing page 1(alternating with 2 continously) 1,2 1,2 1,2

And then if click cancel I get about 20 blank pages printed.

Finally I get an access violation.

I would like to know if anybody else has experienced this problem or is
printer specific. ( I print from word custom sized papers in landscape with
no problem)

    Hi George,

    In my testing with a HP LaserJet 5, printing a custom sized page in
    landscape mode seemed to work correctly. Try updating your printer driver
    and see if that makes a difference. ReportBuilder calls the same Windows
    API methods when printing for every printer it uses. These API calls may or
    may not be the same ones that Word uses. Try printing on another printer
    and see if you get the same results.
