IBM iAccess – Client Solutions (Java) Report Printing Setup.

Summary

Problem: Reports when printed are cutting off the ends of rows and bottom of pages.
Note: With AS400 "Reports" in general, they are set to a predetermined font, number of rows and characters per row for each page, this was based on the old Windows Client Access software. If the following settings still fail to produce suitable printouts, the EAS team should work with the user and new iAccess Java client, to scale the report pages correctly.
