(Assuming Access XP or higher)

Sub PrintMyReports( )
Call printReport("Re port1", "PrinterA")
Call printReport("Re port1", "PrinterB")
Call printReport("Re port1", "PrinterC")
End Sub

Sub printReport(ByV al strReportName As String, strPrinterName As String)
Set Applicateion.Pr inter = Application.Pri nters(strPrinte rName)
DoCmd.OpenRepor t strReportname, acViewNormal
End Sub

If you want to know what printers you have installed you can loop through
the Printers collection of the Application object:

Sub ListMyPrinters( )
Dim prn As Printer
For Each prn In Application.Pri nters
Debug.Print prn.DeviceName
Next prn
End Sub

Hi I am looking into Oki ML 590 and ML 591 printers to see if any of these will work with multi-part (multiple copies) continuous stationery for printing invoices from access. Has anyone had any experience of these printers or can recommend another one for printing on multi-part continuous stationery from access? Thanks

This is the approach I used to automate printing of Microsoft Access reports to PDF format i.e. unattended and without annoying "Save As..." dialogs, and - more importantly - without having to use a commercial program such as Adobe Acrobat and its associated API. The technique uses Ghostscript and Redirection Port Monitor - two free programs for creating PDF documents provided free by Russell Lang. The actual automation requires VBA...

To ASP.NET printing experts: My Asp.net web form needs to print some reports at the client side. I've been trying to research this and find some confusing and conflicting information in previous news group answers. Some say "Crystal Reports", others say "PDF" or "Word", and others say that you cannot do this at all on client side??? My reports are text documents that are already formatted, contain form feeds, and positioning controls...

Is there a way (code, plugin, etc.) to output a single Access report as multiple reports? Preferrably, I want to control the output target by data in the record group. The scenario is this: We have a 500 page report that encompasses all of our clients. We need to automatically deliver reports by-client to specific printers. Other than outputting 1st to PDF, then manually re- printing "pages n..n+5" or whatever, we do not have a way....

This works fine in the Visual Studio 2005 development environment on localhost. But, when I move the page to the web server, I get the error "Settings to access printer...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
