Hi

I got this exception when I try to print a report "PrintTicket provider failed to convert PrintTicket to DEVMODE"
Does anyone know what this is?

Hi

Could you please provide us with more information on printing environment. Did it happen with some particular printer or that error occurred for several different printers?

Thank you.

Hello,

Very strange error. This error is not depend on our product. As i see Something wrong with creationg Xps document (which WPF used for printing). Can you provide me additional information:

-You try to print report from Viewer control?
-Which version of Reports.Wpf you use?
-Which version of .Net you use?
-Try to print from Demo.Wpf.exe application. Error will be same?

Thank you.

Hello,

As i see from web search this is problem in WPF environment when WPF print provider try to enumerate printer capabilities and solution does not exist now (or i can't find it). We continue investigate this problem. Also we will add special static option to our product: This options will be force GDI printing from WPF viewer.

p.s. Changes will be available in build from 11 Jan.

Thank you.

Hello,

These are WPF bugs not ours.

Thank you.
