    Bar Code Printing in Micro Size on Label

    So the label command requires an image to work, as opposed to report form which can generate a label with or without a pre-made image ?

    Bar Code Printing in Micro Size on Label

    What is the disadvantage of building the label with standard VFP report form ? To me the FoxBarCode's approach is going the long route: how would I know all the settings (cset128 = '*', label type, etc) when I can easily create the label with the report form ? Just curious.

    Bar Code Printing in Micro Size on Label

    Chriss, Thanks for the explanation. Still not sure how settings defined under FoxBarcode object link to the Label command. Regardless, that's a lot of extra steps which can be done in the standard Report form. We have labels of various sizes and some applications require printing of batch of...

    Bar Code Printing in Micro Size on Label

    I'm not familiar with the Label Form command, nor with the 'FoxBarcode' object. However we have been using IDAutomation fonts (I25, C39, etc.) for shipping labels for decades, since the FoxBase days; and the same coding is working with VFP 9.0 now (we do have a paid version of IDAutomation font...

    Windows 0xc0000005 exception code, LFSO80.dll_unloaded

    Hello fellow colleagues, We got this exception code showing in Event Viewer log, having to do with the third party image management software, LaserFiche. (the main module is LF.exe, and the offending module is LFSO80.dll). What's is strange is the VFP 9.0 executable would crash out with the...

    foxpro print

    Wow ! I thought I'm the only one who is still using "@ row,col say 'Hello'" for 80x25 screen and " @ prow,pcol say " for printer output. Secondly the first part of the 'MFLD' logic is very convoluted: it seems the only time the print routine in the second part will be executed is when somehow...

    SQLEXEC crashes VFP

    You can use aerror() function to see error messages: lnresult = SQLEXEC(gnConnHandle, 'SELECT * FROM artigos', 'mapa') if lnresult < 0 lnError = Aerror(laError) *check error messages in array laError else * endif

    It would help people understand your problem if you include your coding examples.

    how to send Esc code to Epson LQ-590II for draft, courier, etc.

    I'm now mostly certain the SET PRINTER TO will empty the print queue buffer as I recall years ago we had issue with printer output of REPOR FORM hanging up in the print queue forever after the report had been finished and then it printed immediately after we added the SEST PRINTER TO command...

    how to send Esc code to Epson LQ-590II for draft, courier, etc.

    Sorry, the testing is still in progress and very slow due to the fact I'm working from remote and have to work with people in the office, where the printer is located, who are not familiar with VFP printing so I'm only getting test results piece by piece and therefore wasn't able to report back...

    how to send Esc code to Epson LQ-590II for draft, courier, etc.

    Chris We don't use linefeed,formfeed codes for printing anymore; only when we are building HTML or EDI text files. We use ??? and ?? only for sending font settings Esc codes to Epson and we did not want the code to change print positions. And the reason for using ??? is we are not able to put...

    how to send Esc code to Epson LQ-590II for draft, courier, etc.

    Esc codes are used here primarily for printer font selection purpose for Epson LQ-590 dot-matrix printer (unfortunately we are still searching for laser alternatives for multi-part paper apps, or paperless options, but still, people need that piece of paper). The build-in Set Printer Font...

    how to send Esc code to Epson LQ-590II for draft, courier, etc.

    I'm familiar with start/stop procedures of spooler under Windows Services. Here it seems I need to use Generic/Text as driver (vs Epson printer driver) and disable print spool; that's what I did by selecting 'Print directly to printer' instead of 'Spool print documents' under printer property...

    how to send Esc code to Epson LQ-590II for draft, courier, etc.

    That did it. Changed the driver from Epson to Generic/Text and the Esc code went through and reconfigured the fonts. Thanks everyone. One note: even I set Widows printer property to no spool (print direct), the print job still went to the print queue and won't go away until multiple 'set printer...

    Hello colleagues, https://www.tek-tips.com/threads/sending-printer-command-from-vfp.76448/ Above is an old thread that deals with exactly the same issue as I'm having now.
