Problems printing Dymo 90010 address labels

[Robert Collins]

I've had a search for various Dymo printing problem topics and tried many different things but I cannot get Filemaker to successfully print an 90010 address label on a Dymo 400 printer.

I have set up a new layout , ditched the header and footer , made the body the height of the label and zeroed the margins (pretty much everything that other people have suggested , and have got working).

Every time i run the script , it tells me that the combined size of the header and footer is longer than can fit on the page . please try reducing the header and footer.

has anyone got a template they can attach as i'm getting nowhere.

Many thanks

Is the script selecting the correct layout?

Yes it is

I have just come across this looking for problems with Dymo label printers.

I have had the self same problem on and off for some time not with Dymo printers but HP printers, with Windows XP, and Windows 7. I am currently on FM v9 but I tried to solve the problem with an upgrade to FM v11 and it made no difference.

After many hours of soul-searching I have not solved the problem exactly but I can make it go away for a while. Try deleting the 'page setup' and 'print' script steps in your printing script (assuming you have them). Save the script. Then re-insert the steps and it should work.

In order to avoid a 'real' problem with your layout make sure you can print it from just the preview screen.

Hope that helps
