A historical report was
scheduled to print to a
file, but it was printed
on a printer connected
to the PC or on the
network.
The printer that was
configured to print to a file
was not the application
default printer. If you set the
port of a printer that is not
the application default
printer, to print to a file,
and you schedule a
historical report to be
printed on that printer,
then the report will be
printed on the application
default printer, not to a file.
To schedule a historical
report to be printed to a file,
you must
1. Set the port of a printer to
print to a file.
2. Make that printer the
default application
printer (if it is not
already).
3. Schedule the historical
report to be printed by
the default application
printer that you
designated in step 2.
CAUTION:
If you print to a file,
remember that at the time
you choose for the report to
be printed, your will be
prompted to enter a file
name. The prompt window
remains on the screen, no
file is written, and BCMSVu
Client is halted until you
enter a file name.
