Unable to print a custom form to a Xerox Phaser 4400

rbuser

I am using Delphi 5 with report builder 6.03 and am trying to print a custom
form to a Xerox Phaser 4400 printer. When running through the following
code I have found that it will retain the new BinName but If I check the
PaperName right after I have set it I find that it has reverted back to
'Letter'.

Report.PrinterSetup.PaperName := 'U-339';
Report.PrinterSetup.BinName := 'Automatically Select';
Report.Print;

I have verified that the custom form is installed and available to be
printed to. If I look through the paper names string list I find that
'U-339' is indeed listed and available to report builder. Any ideas as to
why it won't retain the new paper name and how to fix this problem? Thanks!

Hi Brian,

In my testing, I am unable to recreate the behavior you describe. I created
a simple project that sets the PaperName and BinName inside a button click
event just before the report prints. Then while the report is running, I
re-checked the values and they remained the same. If possible, please send
an example Delphi project that demonstrates the behavior you are
experiencing in .zip format to support@digital-metaphors.com and I'll take a
look at it.
