Status: Verified
FACT(s) (Environment):
Windows NT 32 Intel/Windows 2000
SYMPTOM(s):
Printing from 4GL procedure using OUTPUT TO PRINTER or similar statement
Unable to create Printer Device Context: . (4110)
Printer name in Windows is longer than 80 characters
CAUSE:
Bug# 20040812-005
CAUSE:
In the 4GL core, the printer name gets truncated to 80 characters. This in turn causes the OS-level lookups for the printer to fail.
FIX:
Upgrade to Progress 9.1E or later release
Upgrade to OpenEdge 10.1A or later release
Workaround:
Rename the printer with a shorter name that stays under the 80 characters limit.
Take into account that Windows printing redirection services may append additional information to the printer name.
