QuickReport: huge report

   I've got a problem while printing huge reports (approx.400 pages,
every page as a separate printer job) through the LAN. After printing
~150-200 pages Windows shows a message "Printer is unavailable" and no
more jobs are added to printer's tasklist.
   I've limited amount of pages per time to ~100 (I'm printing 100
pages, then waiting for printer to finish all jobs and then printing
another 100 pages), and I've got the same message while printing second
or third 100 pages.
  Only way to cheat this is to restart program after every 100 pages.

What's happening?
System: Windows98 PE,
        10mbit LAN,
        Printer HP4050

 

Re:QuickReport: huge report


You could put all reports in a single TQRCompositeReport and print it in a
single printjob.
You will have to set Options.Compression to True for a report of this size.
