- set the reports to print portrait, landscape or computer reduction
Advanced options tab

settings or contact the printer manufacture for better font settings
communication > configure
communication > configure > setup
*IMPORTANT settings
- Lexmark, IBM, HP Laser and Okidata printers nearly universally accept
HPT (Host Print Transform).
- If your printer doesn't tolerate HPT then uncheck it and set the
font to Modern. That setting may work better.
communication > configure > setup > printer model selection
If host print transform is select try the following settings
- IBM/Lexmark printers - try 2380, 2381 or 5204
- HP Printers - try your model number first then try HPii or HPiv if that
fails
- Okidata printers - try your model number first then try IBM 5204
- Other printers - find your model number next try IBM 5204 or HPii and
HPiv
- If your printer still won't print correctly you must turn HPT (Host
print transform) off
