 Agreed the developer printer driver helped our issues as well.

we had a devil of a time with labels and our zebra printers untill we installed
the developer printer driver from the zebra site - I believe it allows more
control over printer settings

Hello everyone,

I'm hoping the fantastic people on this list can help me with an issue with printing barcode labels in Vantage 8.00.

I've been working with a third party company to help develop and implement custom receipt and finished goods labels. They look great, and print fine out of Crystal directly, but when called from Vantage, they print offcenter.

I have played with the printer driver and settings (Zebra LP2844) a million different ways, with the same result. I've been told that Vantage 8.00 assumes all reports are on 8.5 X 11, and you can't change the settings. The labels are 3X2, 4X3, 4X6.

Am I missing something really simple? Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you,

We ended up puchasing bartender and creating the labels. We have custom labels for both receipt and finished goods. I had the same problems everytime it would work fine from developer and then not from runtime. Glad we did get bartender because it has allowed us to do so much more with passing commands from Vantage right into bartender to select the data.

Leslie,



I had to mess with this for a long time; I finally found that crystal
will let you use different size papers. You will need to make sure the
paper size is the correct size and not 8.5 x 11.



This should help you.



Sincerely,

Rick Hagy

Hello everyone,

I'm hoping the fantastic people on this list can help me with an issue
with printing barcode labels in Vantage 8.00.

I've been working with a third party company to help develop and
implement custom receipt and finished goods labels. They look great, and
print fine out of Crystal directly, but when called from Vantage, they
print offcenter.

I have played with the printer driver and settings (Zebra LP2844) a
million different ways, with the same result. I've been told that
Vantage 8.00 assumes all reports are on 8.5 X 11, and you can't change
the settings. The labels are 3X2, 4X3, 4X6.

Am I missing something really simple? Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you,

Leslie Martin
