Dyno Printer

[Gambler]

We have a Dyno printer (330) and am trying to use it with an FMP 5.5 application. I can get my application to print to my HP laser, but not the Dyno. I get an error message showing that there is no printer attached. Yet under printer setup it's there.

I'm on a Windows XP Professional using a USB port.

Any help you can offer would be appreciated. Thank you.

Can you print to the Dyno from any other apps ?

[Gambler]

Yes, I can print using MS Word or Notepad or via a printer test. Using Windows 2000 Professional.

Thank you

When performing label printing, I get two Printer Dialog Windows for printer select.

Printer Dialog Window #1

The first is a Windows printer select window and it defaults to the DymoLabel Writer.

Printer Dialog Window #2

The second printer window is a FileMaker Print Dialog window. It offers to print "the current record" (as the default choice) and offers the default printer as the DymoLabel Writer 330.

Here is what happens.

On Printer Dialog Window #1, if I click "OK", It advances to Printer Dialog Window #2. If I click "OK", I get the message about printer not being found (no port configured).

Now repeat the process, only this time in Printer Dialog Window #2, if I "re-select" the Dymo Label Writer, it prints fine....

Got an answer?:??

I've just been involved with setting-up a Zebra on a Win2kPro system via a USB port. A few strange things were happening because of the USB. However, it settled down after a while.

I guess you have tried setting the defaults through the "Start/Settings/Printers"? It sounds like FM is not looking at the system defaults!

All the best.
