Hello,

Is it possible to specify a printer at design time for printing labels? I
am using a tractor feed printer for printing on wide paper. What I am doing
is migrating a report that I was running in MS Access to Reporting Services.
But in MS Access - in the page setup - I can specify paper size, paper
source and a specific printer to use. I have not seen/found these options in
Reporting Services. Is it possible to specify paper type and printer in RS?
How to do this?

Thanks,

I sort of figured this out. When going to print the report from the report
client - you can select page setup - and there is where I can see the various
options for paper source/printers...I just go to printers and to printer
properties to select my tractor feed printer. There is also a paper source
selection in the printer dialog for select the US Std FanFold.
