Help!
Trying to print a bit-mapped report. Have done the following...
Set up printer, style and driver combination w/o initialisation or reset
strings, SRW driver PSL132, Columns 132, Rows 64.
Defined concurrent program to output as POSTSCRIPT and set 'Execution
Options' field to 'VERSION=2.0b' and set style and printer to that defined
above.
When running report to printer I get ERR REP-0826: Invalid printer driver
'xxxx' specified by DESFORMAT, where xxxx is the name of my printer. If I
don't specifiy any printer I get ERR REP-0826: Invalid printer driver
'dflt' specified by DESFORMAT.
Any suggestions appreciated.
Thanks.

Have you placed an entry in the
$ORACLE_HOME/guicommon2/tk23/admin/uprint.txt
file. Does this entry name a printer that exists on your server.

There is no $ORACLE_HOME/guicommon2 directory.
Should there be one for tools on NT?
Thanks.

Sorry, I missed the NT bit. I really should pay more attention sometimes.
I had a look on one of the PCs we use here for development and could not see this directory.
My comment about the printer, if the queue does not exists or reports an
error you get a message
REP-1800: Formatter error.
and
APP-00969 Program exited with status 1
APP-01125 Concurrent Manager got error running Oracle Reports for =
request xxxx
The uiprint.txt file I mentioned contains
# OSName:Type:Version:Long Name:Description File:
# The first field is the name of the printer.
# The second field is the type of driver
# The third field is the version of the type of printer driver
# The fourth field is a long description of the printer
# The fifth field is the printer description file to be used.
If this file is not configured properly I think you get the same errors
as above so I now think that this is not your problem.
My next suggestion would be to check the existence and contents of the
SRW drivers defined for your printer style in $FND_TOP/srw. What is the
style you specify when you submit the report? Is it your postscript
style?

Thanks for your response - off yesterday so only now checking my mail.
The SRW drivers exist (in fact the report prints fine from Developer - but
not from the application). The DESFORMAT parameter is dflt. I assume the
the concurrent manager sets this based on the output type. If I do not
specify any options at runtime (i.e. print to the screen) I get the message
that DFLT is invalid. If I specifiy a printer I get the message that PSL132
is invalid.
Cheers.

There is a paper Note:68408.1 on MetaLink that gives excellent write up on
'Set up Oracle Applications Bit Mapped report on Windows NT'. It appears
you did not specify any 'Completion Options' on the request.
Cheers.

Thanks for your response. I have read the note you mention and followed it
to the letter. I have tried to run with completion options (selecting the
Postscript printer) and without completion options. In the former case it
fails telling me that "Invalid printer driver 'Oracleprt' specified by
parameter DESFORMAT", where Oracleprt is my Postscript printer using driver
PSL132; in the latter case it fails telling me that "Invalid printer driver
'dflt' specified by parameter DESFORMAT".

You will need to define your printer definitions fully i.e
\\printserver1\HPLaser
and when define you report your options setting under executable must be
VERSION=2.0b

I use this to send a Word document when an certain alert fires. You may have
to specify the entire path of the filename and mailx (in my case its
