Tech Tip: Selecting Paper Bins for Each Page

Sometimes you may want to print the first page of a report to the
manual bin and then print the remaining pages to the default bin.

You can use the Report.OnStartPage event to set the bin for any page.


Example:

procedure TForm1.ppReport1OnStartPageEvent(Sender:TObject);
var
lsBinName: String;

begin

if ppReport1.AbsolutePageNo = 1 then
lsBinName := ppReport1.PrinterSetup.BinNames[3]
else
lsBinName := ppReport1.PrinterSetup.BinNames[1];


ppReport1.Engine.Page.PrinterSetup.BinName := lsBinName;


end;



Note: The above example assumes the manual bin is 4th in the list
(remember its a 0 based index). To account for different print drivers,
you could search for the 'manual' bin in code by performing a search on
the printer's available bin names:

for liBin := 0 to ppReport1.PrinterSetup.BinNames.Count-1 do
if Pos('manual', ppReport1.PrinterSetup.BinNames[liBin]) > 0 then
begin
lsBinName := ppReport1.PrinterSetup.BinNames[liBin];
break;

end;
