May be the printer name is wrong.

Please use the following code to debug what name is coming while choosing the network printer

and then assign proper name.

Still if incase it did not work out, there might be a permission issue then look at

Best of luck,.

Use this code to know the installed printers

and this code on the load function.. you will fill a combobox with the printers and their names correctly, and then use your code

In case anyone else still has this problem:

In the crystal report document you are trying to print, go to:

Design --> Page Setup

A default printer not installed on your server side may have been selected. Remove or replace it and save the document. Then run your .Net code to set the printer dynamically if you want.

For anyone having a similar problem this can be a solution:

Crystal Reports Print To Printer

User 4 backslashes i.e before Networkand 2 backslashes i.e before printername

In ASP.Net, a simple and sweet solution consists in install same printer drivers(like hp or zebraa) including version in both server and clinet meachine it will work with @ipaddressprintername.

Crystal Reports Printer Settings

I have an extremely annoying printing issue with crystal reports. My environment is crystal reports 2008 SP2 on Windows 7 (64bit), Visual studio 2008 and .net framework 3.5 with all the latest updates for everything. The report is designed basically to render a small shelf label of the size (40mm width and 20mm height). In crystal when I set the page size to the above mentioned values and set orientation to portrait and take a preview, everything is displayed as i expect it to be and issuing a print command, it prints absolutely correct.

The problem comes when i print this report from my program (in vb.net), dynamically setting data to some text fields, the result is that crystal somehow changes the print orientation, NOT the paper orientation as in portrait or landscape. Instead of printing from top left towards the bottom right, it rotates the whole output at 90 degrees to the left and reduces everything so small that it is barely visible, although it prints everything out. I have tested it on Intermec PF8t and Zebra GK420d label printers and a whole bunch of laser printers, but with the above stated page settings the output is always the same.

Crystal Reports Printer Name Is Invalid

Another strange thing that i noticed while experimenting with page sizes if i switch to landscape mode, the print out is correct in its font sizes and positions but then the text gets truncated due to overflowing the page size.

Can anyone help me with this. Does crystal has anything like its own print drivers or something. I have tried to ensure to the best of my abilities that it is not a printer driver problem.

Hp ilo 4 keygens and cracks. I had a pretty similar problem with an older version of Crystal; I changed the layout to landscape and redefined the page size to match that layout and the problem disappeared. That and making sure no text went outside the page boundaries.
