Number of copies

Postby ericderycke » Wed Jul 11, 2012 7:01 am

I try to print a document in more than 1 copy. I use therefore the method VpeSetDevCopies. But I always get 1 copy of the document. I use VpeSetDevCopies after I set the printer with VpeSetDevice. I use VpePrintDoc (with the option false = not viewing the printer dialog) to print the document.
When I use VpeGetDevCopies, I get the number of copies I have set. If I use VpePrintDoc with viewing the printer dialog the correct number of copies I have set is proposed. When I then print then I get the correct number of copies.
I'm using an old version of VPE 3.60 R4 on Windows 7 64 bit with Progress 10.2B. I do know that this version is not supported on Windows 7 but everything else works. I also use the DLL interface.
I'm doing something wrong or is this a problem with the printer driver ?

VPE v3.60 is from 2004 and no longer supported. The code for controlling the printer device has changed since then. Please install the trial-version of the current version v6.10 and run your tests with it. If the problem should exist in the current version, please post again.
