Printing to Multiple Drawers

[JBalcerzak]

Hi,

I'm trying to create a report that would print to the top drawer of a 2 drawer printer and then use the other drawer for the second page. Replacing our dot-matrix printers and multi-part forms with a high-speed laser that has 2 drawers in them. If anybody has any tips, it would be apprciated.

thanks,

Jeff Balcerzak

See

for a list of 3rd-party Crystal Reports tools.

My Visual CUT software allows you to control the paper tray source for each page via Crystal formulas embedded in the report or via page range directives in a command line argument. The automated process first exports to pdf and then splits the printout of the pdf across multiple printer trays.

Thanks for the reply, but I'm really looking to avoid having to use a 3rd party app.

afaik, there's no way to do this in Crystal alone.
