MS Access Forum / Reports / Printing / April 2008Access 2003 report not using printer default settings
Hello, We recently upgraded an Access 2000 database to Access 2003. There are over 100 reports that were designed to use the 'default printer'. We have customers in UK and AU that use the A4 paper size as well as customers in the US that use the Letter size. In Access 2000 when you print the report the settings of the default printer were automatically applied. However, in Access 2003 the default printer settings are ignored. So our UK and AU customers are discovering that they now need to select the proper paper size each time they print a report in our application. I read in this Microsoft article that Word 2003 will pull the page settings of the document and use those settings when printing. Is this applicable to Access 2003 as well? Is there a workaround so that our reports can be used by customers around the world with different settings? http://support.microsoft.com/kb/904805 Thank you for your help. > Hello, > We recently upgraded an Access 2000 database to Access 2003.

I should add some more information: - we do not modify printer settings programmatically - the Name Auto Correct option is not selected - in each case there is a default printer selected (the proper drivers are installed as this worked fine in Access 2000) - users are running Access 2003 Runtime and Office 2003 SP3 I am having the same problem with one PC. I have other PC's that keep the settings using the same version of Access 2003 SP3. Have you figured out the problem anjee? > > Hello, > > We recently upgraded an Access 2000 database to Access 2003.
