I'm having a problem printing a specific Access 2000 report to a Savin Printer. Several PCs have sent the report and we all get garbage... well not true garbage... some, very few words are fine... others seem to be missing some of the letters. If the report is sent to other printers it looks fine. It's a simple report, one page, not heavy formatting and the same font we use on everything. Does anyone have any idea what might be the problem. The network guy says it's my report since it's the only one apparently having a problem. Thanks for any light you can shed.

The first thought is, does this report have to go to this printer? The second, if it does is it to be formatted in a special way to take advantage of the printer's capabilities? Third if both are true, then
did you create the report in Access withthe Savin as you default printer?
If it is still yes, then are the Savin printer drivers letting other reports from Access out? And if so are they reports created before Access2000 or afterwards.

Sounds like a drive issue for the Savin. Verify you have the latest drivers and if so, check Knowledge Base to see if you can choose a different existing printer dirver. I have seen this in Word, resolution was using a different printer dirver in Windows.

Hope this helps!
