We are having problems printing Reports (when printing by clicking on the AcitiveX print control), where the font for the fields are set to "C39HrP24DhTt" (barcode).
While viewing the report it displays as Barcodes but while printing, the Barcode does not get printed, but the string gets printed.
Environment: SSRS 2005
Using the ReportViewer Control in a .Net 2.0 Web App to render the reports.
BarCodes print fine in the following situations:
1. When the Report is exported to Excel and when printed from there
2. When you click on the print button on Internet Explorer
3. When saving as html (from view source) and opening that html document and printing.
BarCodes do NOT get printed in the following situation:
1. When printing by clicking on the "Print" (Active X Control) icon. Even the "Print Preview" does not show the Barcode.
UPDATE #2: When it said "Do you want to install Microsoft SQL Server" I said "yes" and that caused it to work. I exited and re-ran and now the print runs w/o the "install SQL Server" (If the prompt had said "Do you want to install the print dialog" we wouldn't be having this discussion...)
UPDATE: After posting this i discovered that the same thing occurs when attempting to print the report direct from IE6: First a dialog pops up "Do you want to install this software?" Name: Microsoft SQL Server. When I click "Don't Install" I get the dialog "unable to load client print control." Since this happens direct from IE6 I suspect it's browser settings. I'll resume tomorrow and post a followup.
My WinForm C# app integrates Reporting Services by calling them from WebBrowser controls. The problem is attempts to print cause a dialog: "unable to load client print control."
I've read prior posts that say "enable Active-X in your browser" - I don't know how to do that from a WebBrowser control.
Any ideas how to support Reporting Services "Print" from within a WebBrowser control?
Where or how can I download the Active X control for the client Print for the SSRS 2000. The reason is I want to push this Active X control to the clients' machines. Instead of waiting for them to download theirself who don't have permissions to do it.
I have a few reports that suddenly stopped printing.
Nothing changed on the report server, and one minute they could print, the other they couldn't
I have one report that is 4 pages in preview and six when it prints. The users press the print control on the web page and the print dialog comes up, they select a printer and the printing messagebox comes up. Then it will print a couple of pages VERY SLOWLY... and eventually will hang at the 3rd page.
IT appears it is just spooling in the printer control viewer...
Other similiar reports that use the same query but a different parameter, work just fine.
I have rebuilt and redployed the report. The problem is happening on both my live and test environments.
I have looked through this forum but not found an answer. I did delete and re-isntall the client print control.
I have turned the client logging on. But no errrors show up anywhere.
I am running ssrs 2005 on both machines. test machine has win2003 sp1 , sql 2005 sp2 AND hotfix's
When you display a SQL Reporting Services report to the screen in the header there is a Printer Icon displayed. When we click this icon we get an error message "Unable to load client print control ".
Does anyone know what we need to load or what we need to do to resolve this so that we can print the report directly to teh printer, rather than having ot prinnt the web page, which also prints all the Web headre information
We are experiencing a problem where a server report is rendered in the ReportViewer control successfully but when the user chooses to print the content, the print output is incomplete (ex. only 18 of 23 pages are printed, etc.).
This is happening consistently and has been reproduced for multiple different reports. It does not happen if the same report is printed via the Report Manager web interface.
I have also found that if I switch to Print Layout mode and then initiate the print from the ReportViewer that the problem does not occur. This is our current workaround, but it would be nice to know what is causing this and have it fixed.
Has anybody else seen this? Is this a known issue with my current version (SQLRS 2005 with SP1 applied).
I have a MS Reporting Services Report which I display in a ASPX page inside a iFrame (i.e. an other ASPX page displayed inside the main ASPX page). The report is rendered to the screen using the normal ReportViewer control.
Everything works fine, except when I click on the Print Button on the ReportViewer control, I get a Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) and my computer restarts. This is something that happens every single time I click on that Print button
I have a user that says that after she installed the ActiveX control for printing, that she can no longer export the reports. Has this happened to anyone else? What settings do I need to check on her machine to fix this problem?
I am having an issue with report printing. I have used a specific font (Garamond) for all the report elements when creating the report in Bus Int. Dev. Studio. While printing from the preview pane, the report prints with the Garamond font (as intended).
But the issue is that after deployment, printing the report (with browser print control) does not print it with the Garamond font (looks like it is using the Arial or a similar font). This changes the whole look and feel of the report. I have tried printing the report from the reportserver, report manager and through URL access. All the 3 methods are giving similar results that the print output is not using the on-screen font.
Anybody else face similar issues? Is there any workaround for this? TIA.
Problem: When SSRS report is viewed in Reportviewer control in FIREFOX browser, then Print,Zoom and Search tool bar icons are not displayed.
The same problem is also seen, when SSRS report is viewed using URL in Firefox browser.
Description: When SSRS report is viewed using reportviewer control in IE browser, then All tool bar icons are displayed. Following are the Toolbar icons displayed: 1. Search. 2. Next Prev Button 3. Print 4. Zoom 5. Export
But, when the same SSRS report is viewed using Reportviewer control in Firefox browser, then following toolbar icons are not displayed: 1. Print 2. Zoom 3. Search
I would appreciate any pointers to resolve this issue.

We have recently upgraded our .Net web application from a windows 2003 server to a windows 2012 server. Since this happened users that are trying to print a reporting services report is getting the error "Unable to load client print control". We are using reporting services 2012, but the application is using the 8 version of the viewer. The reporting services server did not change only the application server. The code for the application did not change.
As most are aware by now, the Report Viewer controls for reporting services in 12.0 and prior rely on ActiveX to work. This causes compatibility issues for any non-IE browser, and as of IE11 and now Windows 10 Edge browser it's causing issues for even IE. Research suggests that SSRS 2014 switched out to Silverlight:
[URL]
However, Silverlight uses NPAPI which is another technology for which all browsers are ending support. As of this writing, Chrome has already ended support. Similarly/Coincidentally Java support is ending as well.
My question is, what are Microsoft's plan to restore functionality such as print/search for browsers where ActiveX/Silverlight cannot be used since this support is no longer strictly a 3rd party browser situation?
It seems the features are disabled when using any of the above because of compatibility issues with scripting/ActiveX not being properly supported by the FireFox and Chrome.
I believe the control determines the browser you are using is not IE and will not render the controls to prevent unexpected behavior because if the lack of ActiveX support. This can be seen when you compare the HTML of a page using IE8 and that of either IE11, FF, Chrome you'll see that the HTML for a zoom drop down control will show up in the IE8 browser and not in the others.
As for IE11 it presents itself as a Mozilla browser. eg: "User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; Trident/7.0; rv:11.0) like Gecko" so when the control see's this it wont generate any of the controls believing the browser can't support it, even though IE11 should certainly be capable of doing so. I wanted to know if this is correct and if this is a bug?

The page mentions that the following wont be supported by other browsers The following features are not supported in third-party browsers:

i would like to enquire about the Print statement. If I do not want to use the Raiseerror to raise an error as its not an error, but want to just print out in a dialog box, how do i do it?I tried using the Print statement but nothing happened. I am using this inside my trigger, can someone help?Thank You
This is so stupid of a question but is there a simple way to print (to a printer) the results of SELECT * FROM SkillGoals --- To show all data(including column headings?)
I have a long running (48 hour+) stored proc. I've added PRINT statements that print "1%", "2%", etc to provide progress so I can get a ballpark idea of how far along the process is. I ran the stored proc and realized that this won't work. I don't see the output of the print statements until the stored proc is completed. I'm running this from Query Analyzer (SQL Server 2000 SP3a).
For example, the following will wait ten seconds and then print both statements; it doesn't print one then wait, then print the other. Is there any flush command to make the print statements take effect immediately?
I'm trying to use the PRINT statement to trace what an SP is doing, while running in QA. However, some PRINTs seem not to print anything. I can see that the code part is being executed. Any ideas? (It's just simple prints like print 'executing an insert' .)
Is there an easy way to print off a sql table ? I wanted something along the lines of an Access query that you can print. Or is it easiest to link to the SQL table and use Access to display it ?
just wanted to get sql to stamp the date/time to the screen when i'm running a query.
i tried:
print 'Formatting Table1' print datetime go
got the following error: Msg 128, Level 15, State 1, Line 2 The name "datetime" is not permitted in this context. Valid expressions are constants, constant expressions, and (in some contexts) variables. Column names are not permitted.
Hi,In the query analyser if I type the following:DECLARE @SortOrder integerexec pr_Admin_SetFieldSortOrder @SortOrderprint @SortOrder@SortOrder is never printed. I just get the message saying that theQuery Batch Completed.Why ?Regards
I want to put some trace in the a UDF, so I put print in the function. IT gave error. Can anyone please explain why this happen. But this work with SPs.
I have a web application with a stand alone report. When I put the ReportViewer in the webform I can see every reports in the project. The problem is that I can't see the print report button...
If I indicate that the report is a "Server Report" instead a local report the Print Report appear, but a need a "Local Report" not a "Server Report" How can i solve that.
I have created a report which contains grouping. Yesterday I learnt how to add a boolean paramter to expandAll. Now in my ASP.Net front end I am using ReportViewer to retrieve the report...
Now I want to introduce a "Print Version" and "Normal Version" (print version being all rows showing (expanding all grouping) and normal being groups showing....
Will this work?
Use javascript to create to div... 1 showing ReportViewer1 where expandAll parameter is true and div 2 containing ReportViewer2 where parameter is false...a radiobutton conrolled by javascript code will hide 1 div and show the other?!
For some reason it doesnt load the report in ReportViewer2?!
I created a parameterized report. When end user select different values from the parameter drop down list , he/she can see the corresponding report for each value.
Now end user wants to print all those reports at the same time , without selecting each report by changing the parameter values.
I created a function that returns a sequence of dates between @LowLimit and @HighLimit. The problem that I'm having is if a bad date is passed into the function I get this error:
Msg 242, Level 16, State 3, Line 1 The conversion of a char data type to a datetime data type resulted in an out-of-range datetime value.
So I tried using: IF @@ERROR = 242 PRINT N'Must use a valid date.';
which gives this error when I try to create the function: Msg 443, Level 16, State 14, Procedure fnDates, Line 10 Invalid use of side-effecting or time-dependent operator in 'PRINT' within a function.
Here's my code: CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[fnDates] ( @LowLimit DATETIME, @HighLimit DATETIME ) RETURNS @Values TABLE ( Value DATETIME ) AS BEGIN IF @@ERROR = 242 PRINT N'Must use a valid date.';
DECLARE @Temp DATETIME DECLARE @DateCtr int SET @DateCtr = 0
/* This allows you to enter the later date first */ IF @LowLimit > @HighLimit SELECT @Temp = @LowLimit, @LowLimit = @HighLimit, @HighLimit = @Temp
INSERT into @Values VALUES (@LowLimit)
WHILE DATEADD(dd, @DateCtr, @LowLimit) < @HighLimit BEGIN SET @DateCtr = @DateCtr + 1
INSERT into @Values SELECT DATEADD(dd, @DateCtr, @LowLimit)
I am using MSDE and WebMatrix. My stored procedure is creating a Dynamic SQL query and is is about 200 lines long.
I am not getting the expected results, but also not generating any errors. I inserted a Print statement to print the resultant SQL query, but I don't know how to see or display that print result.
I do NOT have SQL2000, only MSDE. I am using WebMatrix and VB.net to create my application. Is there some class in asp.net that will help me, or some free utility. One of the problems is that the dynamic SQL is using over 20 parameters to create the query; the end result of the user picking fields on the webform.
