Printing Variable Number of Report Copies

Tweet

 

Allowing the user to print a variable number of copies for an NPR report is easy. Add a report header line to the report. Update the user’s SELECTs. Add a LINE CHECK to send the PCL sequences with the number of copies to be printed to the printer. Add a new custom field to the report.

1) Open NPR report
2) Go to page 1 and enter Report Header = Y. If the report already contains a report header,leave the header alone.
3) Go to page 2 and add a new SELECT FIELD: xx.num.copies IG Number of Copies: “1” This defaults the number of copies to 1.
4) Go to page 3. If a header existed without you adding it, then insert a new header line; otherwise continue on.
5) Add a line check to the 1st report header line. LC=(D(27)_"&l"_(c.xx.num.copies)_"X")^!,"" 6) Add a new field to the report: xx.num.copiesDAT=PINTJFY=RLEN=2VAL=c.xx.num.copies
