Receipt Print Problems...

Rex, try looking at the receipt properties. open manager select database select registers select receipt formats select your 40 column printer select properties select sales select properties

check all the margin & Cpl fields

Copy down what you have, incase you have to put it back.

Change them and save and see what happens!

I've done lots of that... No change.

Here's my XML receipt template...

Rex,

My notes for an Star Micronics SP500;

**********************************************************************************

Assuming you are using 3" wide paper.

Drivers;

OPOS or Windows driver, Windows line mode preferred. Latest version;

W2K/XP - 06/2005 Win9x - 02/2003 OPOS - 11/2004 For driver download;

RMS Settings;

Set paper width to 2.45

0 on both left and right margins.

Small font = 10 Normal CPL = 40 Large CPL = 30 Reverse to False

Printer Driver Settings;

General tab Paper size = 63 * Receipt

Print Options tab Drawer 1 = Document Top

******************************************

The reason it doesn't print properly on your laser printer is because of the

0 margins. Most lasers require a minimum of .25 top, bottom, left, right margins. You didn't give it a margin, so it cut it off on the left.

This had almost no affect.
