Sending Reports Directly to the Printer

  To send your report directly to the printer without first previewing the report:

1. Click on the Standard Toolbar, or select File, then Print.

   If you have not yet saved the report, you will be asked to do so. After you save the report, or if the report is already saved, the Run Report dialog box is displayed.

2. In the Parameters field, enter any desired Production Reporting command-line flags or parameters.

   For information on flags and parameters, see Volume 2 in the Hyperion SQR Production Reporting Developer's Guide or the Production Reporting Language online help.

3. Specify whether to limit the number of pages printed and click OK.

   Limiting the number of pages increases performance; however, keep in mind the following limitations:

   • If you defined a specific sort order (see Sorting Data), SQR Production Reporting Studio does not sort the data when you limit the number of pages printed.

   • Limiting the number of pages prevents you from saving your report in an XML file. (See Displaying Icons on the Navigation Bar for information on saving a report in an XML file).

   • If you placed a calculated field in the Group Header section of the layout, the calculated field may not print if you limit the number of pages. (See Adding Calculated Fields for information creating calculated fields.)

4. If you defined any report parameters in the report query, enter the appropriate values before you print the report.
