Notes:
- JReport Enterprise Server cannot obtain information on which options are supported and which are not from your printer and reflect it on this tab. You should configure the setting according to your printer carefully.
- When your server runs under JDK 1.4 or earlier version, there may be a mistake about field width calculation. In which case, the preview result may be partly invisible. To avoid this, change to JDK 1.4 or later version.
- When there is no printer available (connected to the server), and you schedule to publish a report set result to printer, the server may crash or throw an exception.
