Printing the Report

After you complete the report definition, you print the report. Follow these steps to print the report:

  1. Choose Report Print or the Print button. If you select the Print button, Report Builder sends the report directly to the default printer. If you choose the Print option, the Print dialog box appears:
  2. If you are sending the report to a printer, specify the number of copies to print. The default is 1. The maximum is 9,999.
  3. Specify the range of pages to print. The defaults are 1 to 99,999,999. You can specify any numbers within the range. However, if you specify a beginning number that is beyond the number of pages in the report, Report Builder does not print any pages. If you specify an ending number that is beyond the number of pages in the report, Report Builder prints the beginning page through the end of the report.
  4. Choose OK. Report Builder sends the report to the default printer for your machine. If you want to know what printer is the default printer, choose Report Print Setup or Setup in the Print dialog box. The Printer Setup dialog box lists the available printers and the currently selected printer.

Report Builder saves these settings with the report definition and overrides any corresponding Windows default settings.
