Hi.. I have a question about printing reports in Visual FoxPro 5.0: why after printing the report, the printer is always ejecting the page?? I have tried using commands like ‘store “none” to _peject’ and ‘noeject’ with no result. It’s not the printer’s fault, in foxpro 2.6 this situation is not happening and I ‘ve tried a deskjet printer and a dot matrix printer. The selection of the option ‘manual feed’ in printer properties also didn’t help. I ‘ve also noticed that the option ‘eject page after printing’ is disabled in report’s printer options, so it cannot be selected .. why?? How can be suppressed the form feed? What commands should I use in my program so I won't lose so much paper anymore?
Thank you..
 
If you are printing to a Windows printer and it's configured to "spool" the report, nothing you can do in VFP is going to "fix" this.
