Print from Archive : Screen printer does not support printing

I found something in RB source :

procedure TppCustomArchiveReader.InitializePrinterSetup;
begin

{read the first page in order to set the printersetup default}
if not(FPrinterSetupInitialized) or
((FPrinterSetupInitialized) and not(SavePrinterSetup)) then
begin

if ReadFirstPage then
begin
FPrinterSetupInitialized := True;

PrinterSetup := FPage.PrinterSetup;
end;

DoOnInitializePrinterSetup;
end;

This procedure is called each time in then Print method of TppArchiveReader.
And my Archive file has Screen as default printer.
It always override my own PrinterSetup parms !

The only way I found to stay with my own PrinterSetup is to set it again in
the ArchiveReaderInitializePrinterSetup event, is that normal ?

Merci

The printersetup is persistent. It is saved in the report archive file. To
change the printer setup for archives you have to use the
ArchiveReader.OnInitializePrinterSetup event.
