How To Stop Process Reports From Printing Extra Pages

Summary

Sometimes, Process Reports in the Solatech Software can print on more than one page, when there is no obvious reason for an additional page. This article explains how to correct this issue. This has been referred to as a Blank Page or an Extra Page.

More Information

The Report Editor allows you to create custom process reports, within certain limitations. One feature that can be added is a Terms and Conditions statement. One of the options when creating the Terms and Conditions is the ability to always start on a new page. Even if the Terms and Conditions file is blank or does not exist, checking the box to start Terms and Conditions on a New Page will cause the report to print an extra page.

To correct this, follow the below steps:

  1. Open the Solatech Software
  2. Click Tasks>Manage Process Reports
  3. Click the Setup Reports button, and select the type of report that is giving you this behavior
  4. Note the Report name
  5. Close the Setup Reports window
  6. On the leftmost pane, select the type of report
  7. Highlight the report name noted from above and click Modify
  8. Click on the Other button
  9. Click on the Other Blocks tab
  10. Uncheck the box "Always start terms and conditions on a new page"
  11. Click OK
  12. Click OK again
  13. Close the Reports Center

Your extra page printing issue should now be resolve. Print a sample report to verify.
