Hello,

I cannot get filemaker pro 7 to print in other than economy.

The settings are all set to fine etc and saved .

you print doc it comes out in ecomy --go look at properties and they are set to fine .

IF I copy the page to word and then print it is ok .

I'm not familiar with any issues like you describe but I would start by making sure you are on the current version of FileMaker 7. You can download free updates from:

http://www.filemaker.com/support/downloads/index.html

Also, you might try switching printer drivers or updating to the most current one to see if that helps.

It's good troubleshooting you did to try another application but certainly not surprising you got different results.

You said you tried replacing the drivers. Does this mean you got a newer version? I want you to go to the web site for your printer and download the latest driver.

Also, did you check that you have the latest version of FileMaker 7? Check the web site I gave you and let me know which version you have installed.

Hello,

The problen has been partially resolved.

The fault must be in the printer software somewhere as when i connected an epson it worked ok.

Thanks for your help I will now try to rectify the printer.
