SYMPTOMS
When you are printing in FoxPro, the print job is not immediately released to the printer if a print spooler (such as Windows Print Manager) is being used.
NOTE: Print spoolers are often used in network environments.
CAUSE
FoxPro still has a current connection to the spooler. Until this connection is terminated, the spooler will not release the print job.
RESOLUTION
To resolve this problem, do one of the following:
- Issue the SET PRINTER TO command without any other parameters; for example:
REPORT FORM test TO PRINTER SET PRINTER TO
-or-
- Quit FoxPro. This will terminate FoxPro's connection to the spooler and the print job will be sent to the printer.
-or-
- If you are using FoxPro for Windows, under Windows 3.x, turn off Print Manager in the Windows Control Panel by double-clicking the Printers icon and then clearing the Use Print Manager check box.
-or-
- Issue a RUN command; for example:
RUN DIR > NUL
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft products listed at the beginning of this article.
