RE: 3UP LAbels Revisited

Figured it out !!!

We are using the dell 5200 but in out outq configuration for the dell we
have told it to use the HP4 driver. The actual printer we will be using
is an HP. I tested the output to that printer and all is well.

Still does not address the Dell printer but for now the issue at hand
has been resolved

it could be due to font type & size provided by the printer you are
using.  My guess is that you should be specifying lines per inch &
characters per inch on your OVRPRTF.

Experiment with those & you should be able to find a winning solution to
this.  Here's an example:

OVRPRTF QSYSPRT LPI(6) CPI(10) SHARE(*YES)

for valid vallues you can prompt the OVRPRTF command...

HTH

Didn't work.  Actually, printed 2 more lines and the 3rd line was on the
next sheet

that is true.  That is what the overflow is all about.  Of course, it is
sheet at a time, so the bottom doesn't matter.



Just for fun, try increasing that number 1 at a time (61, 62, 63,
etc.)and see if each trial the creep becomes lesser?

The actual size is 66 but there is a space of approximately 1/2 inch at

the bottom for Avery information, where I can't print.

Why are you showing a page size of 60?  Isn't the page 66?  Also, the

180 degree rotation can be (0).

 

 

 

I went back to look at my old code but it was too far back; its

disappeared.

 

 

 

 

Someone mentioned the *AFPDS/*IPDS setting for printer device type.

That jingled some bells.  Something makes me think the answer lies

there?  Worth trying both ways, see what happens.

Latest update,

 

 

 

Have modified the code to print 10 rows of 3 column labels, all at 1

 

time. The spacing of 3 before and 1 after, for the first line and 1

 

after for the next 2 lines (3 lines total for each label) appears to

 

line up, if you do the match according to the actual label form (Avery

 

5260)

 

 

 

When it actually prints though, all is well until about the 5th row

 

(labels 13,14 and 15) then you can really start to notice the "CREEP".

 

By the time Im at label 27, 28 and 29, the first line is printing

 

bewteen the label group above and the last 3 labels.

 

 

 

Im using the IBM default of Qsysprt for the print file and using the

 

following over ride in a cl

 

OVRPRTF    FILE(*PRTF) PAGESIZE(60) FORMFEED(*AUTOCUT) +

 

             PAGRTT(180) OUTQ(MISP01) SAVE(*YES)

 

 

 

Thanks to everyone for all your help

 

STUMPED !!!!!!
