Problem: I am using the printer zebra LP 2844 to print labels that I created in asp.net as microsoft Report. The Report has the size: width:7.5cm and height : 5 cm. when I use the print button in the microsoft report viewer it automatically sets the orientation to landscape mode switching the width and height ==> width:5cm height: 7.5 cm. this causes the report to be prints vertically using 4 labels instead of 1. Any proposed solutions, or did anyone face this problem before, if yes I would appreciate any help.

Regards,

Solution 2

Here is the solution,

Simply create the report as you wish and add following code before opening the report in ReportViewer.

Dim ps = New System.Drawing.Printing.PageSettings()
ps.Landscape = False

ReportViewer1.SetPageSettings(ps)
Me.ReportViewer1.RefreshReport()
