problem with BinName and Duplex

edited June 2003 in General
The printer-setup functions BinName and Duplex do not function on all
printers. On the HP laser jet 5 and Kyocera FS9000 do not funktioneieren it,
while they function on the printer HP laser jet 5Si. What can lie?

Best regards

    Dirk,

    Some printers do not support duplex printing. The HP LaserJet 5 does not.
    Be sure that your other printers support duplex printing before using this
    option.

    We use the HP LaserJet 5 here and the BinName property works correctly.
    Make sure you have the latest printer driver installed for each printer and
    see if that helps.

    Hallo Nico,

    BinName property now working correct. One must enter the entire names of the
    pit literally.

    But the property duplex working not correct. The printer HP Laserjet 5 can
    print duplex. He has a optional duplex unit. From word and other standard
    software I can other the printersettings adjust the duplex printing. In a
    report other the menue side settings the duplex property working correct.
    But in a event StartPage the setting Engine.Page.PrinterSetup.Duplex :=
    dpNone or Engine.Page.PrinterSetup.Duplex := dpHorizontal not working. Why?

    Best regards

    Dirk,

    Try setting Report.PrinterSetup.DelegateCopies to True and see if that
    helps. Also, make sure you are using the latest printer driver for your
    specific printer.
