Intermittent Report Failure

R

Randy Kilgore

Hello all,
I have an Access 2000 application loaded in 12 different
client offices which uses an Access 2000 runtime. Several
offices have noted reports which act like they have gone
to the printer but nothing prints. Then, they will run
the report again and it will print out. It is never
consistant and it is NOT a No Data to print issue as even
if there is no data the report will still print out
something. Has anyone ran into this? I have noticed that
both client's who have experienced this behavior are
running Windows XP machines with Access XP installed.

Please advise and thanks for any help.

Hi Randy,

Check the printer drivers. Set the machines to a completely new printer
driver as the default and see what result you get. If it works with a
different printer driver then the issue is more related to needing an
updated printer driver or a printer driver that is more compatiable.

I hope this helps! If you have additional questions on this topic, please
respond back to this posting.
