I am using VFp3, in the command report from printer prompt.
It will prompt me to select printer when I print out the report.

Can I special a printer for this printer when it prompt me.

Example : default Windows printer = HP
report printer = Epson


Can It auto prompt to my Epson printer? no need to select it each time.

 
Hi
You can issue a SET PRINTER TO printerName command before the report command. :)

As Ramani suggests you can use:
SET PRINTER TO NAME "LEXMARK OPTRA" && Not the window's default printer.
?SYS(1037)

Or
SET PRINTER TO NAME "LEXMARK OPTRA"
REPORT FORM myReport.frx TO PRINTER PROMPT. Mike Gagnon
