I have a vb.net application that uses 2 crystal reports to print out reports. The first report is A4 and the second is A5.
How can my code access the printer default settings and change the default paper size to A4 and A5 each time without having to do it manually.
I am practicing on how to print from vb.net (2008) i was able to print my text, however I am having hard time changing default page settings.When the script loads up it thinks my default printer is my 8x11 printer and adjusts the label for that. however I am using a small label printer and labels are very small like 1x2inch. After I hit print button I can get the printer dialog box up change the prinet however because margins are wrong, my print out is unaligned. I like to change my default printer at form load step.

The following code resets all the font attributes, which is not what I want:

View 8 RepliesI'm learning about printing and have made good progress but there is still one thing I can't understand. I can set the paper size using "papersize" but should I use "paperkind" - is so, how do I use it? When I want to use the standard papersizes(A4, A5 etc) what method is best?
View 2 RepliesI have written a program in VB that sends faxes to my customers. When I test it, the fax machine prints the output on legal paper and I have no idea why. I have checked everything that I can find and I don't see anything in the API to set the paper size. I am setting the body to a PDF file. When I print the PDF file locally, it prints just fine. I have tried other files, output from other programs (i.e. word) and the end result is always the same.
View 2 RepliesHi, i have a form with size 850,900. When i print this, on the print preview the right hand side of the page is cut off. Is there a way to stretch the form so that the whole form is printed? Currently the form contains 4 datagrids, i don't know if this makes a difference, becuase if i resized these i wouldn't be able to see all of the text.
Also, on the print preview page, is there a way of displaying the print dialog box when pressing the print button, so that the local network printers can be selected?
i am making a Long form and I want it to print in legal size paper. Only thing is I use printform and it does letter size only. Also it cuts off the left over labels i need to print out. I made a Database input form and an output form for printing.
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to change the default icon of my program to something else. Specifcally, the one that is associated with the executable file.I was under the impression that if you set the icon property on the main form, that it will carry over to everything else. when I try to set the icon, I get an error message stating that "The arugment 'picture' must be a picture that can be used as an icon. I have a 32x32 icon that is saves as .ico but it doesn't work.
View 10 RepliesI have a WebBrowser control in a VB.NET WinForms app. I am able to set the default printer from code and print without prompting the user. However, there is also a print button that shows the PrintDialog. If this action is done first the page will print.Then if I try to programmatically print later (again setting the default printer to some other printer) the it will print to the last printer selected in the PrintDialog box even though I am resetting the default and see the default printer being changed in Windows.It works fine unless ShowPrintDialog has a printer chosen first. Once that occurs it seems to always use that printer no matter what I do.

View 10 RepliesI'm a new user of Visual Studio 2008. While I am a fan of Tabbed Browsing, I am in no way a fan of Tabbed Programming, so I have my "Window Layout" set to "Multiple Documents".However, I have been horrified to find that the default window size for any form or module opened is about 9/10ths of the work space. When I resize the window and close it, it opens back up again to 9/10ths of the work space. This is going to very seriously impact my work flow.There has to be some kind of mistake. I've looked for a way to set the default window size, but to no avail. I've searched the web for 3rd party plugins that would let me have more control over the IDE, but also to no avail.Is there some way to set the default window size in Visual Studio 2008? It would seem remarkably amateurish to not provide this extremely basic functionality.
