Hello All,

If I use TPrinterDialog to select my printer, and subsequently call
AssingPrn and Rewrite.  I get an exception when calling Rewrite stating that
the "Selected Printer Is Not Valid".

I ONLY see this problem on Win95. I works just fine on Win98/NT/2000.

Anyone know what the problem could be?

Thanks,
Chuck

I have exactly same problem doing a TQuickRep.Print when papersize is
Custom!

Have not found solution, had to change papersize to A4 and then it worked...

Regards,
Stephan

Does the system have a default printer defined?

Anyway, calling this little function before you do the AssignPrn may help.

 procedure ResetPrinter;
   var
     Device, Driver, Port: array[0..80] of Char;
     DevMode: THandle;
   begin
   Printer.GetPrinter(Device, Driver, Port, DevMode);
   Printer.SetPrinter(Device, Driver, Port, 0)
   end;
