Help with report printing

A

Al

I have a report that prints an address on an envelope.
This report is being used by 2 different users with 2
different printers that are connected directly to their
computers. when I setup the report on one computer it
causes the other to have a problem printing correctly (the
position of the address would be way off) and visa versa.
One computer uses an hp laserjet 1200 and the other uses
hp laserjet 2200D. is there a way that I can chang the
setup through code based on which machine the envelope is
printed from. I am using size paper (envelope #10). thank
you

One possibility is that the underlying report has been defined to a specific
(versus a default) printer. Check the report's (and Access') Print
Settings.

And it may just be that the default margins/unprintable space of these two
printers is enough different (each printer model's is different) that one
setup doesn't fit both...

No, It is set for the default printer not specific. any
other idea. how can I take care of this through code. May
by by using the <Application.Printer.DeviceName> to
determine which printer then based on that I can set up the
all settings for the report. I do not know how to do the
second part?
