Anyone know how to properly program special form labels for these devices:
Dymo 330, 400 twin?
Environment: database SQL Server backend.
Printer: Dymo LabelWriter 330 sitting on the users desk.
So, we have a networked database being the source of an Access 2003
application where the executable (.ade) is installed on a user's desktop.
The user wants to print to a local desktop Dymo label printer.
Specifically, then want two different labels, each with needing special x,y
offsets to locate the data on the label face just right.
In order to get the same set of special format labels to work on each user'
s desktop, I had to compile the .adp on each user's machine, selecting a
default label from a list of "standard" label formats. It appears to me
that the compilation does something to store the special label settings on
each individual PC (perhaps in the Registry, or some Access control file).
In short, while this works, it is an intolerable maintenance situation. Is
there some standard way that I can program the special offsets into the
labels on my test machine using a local Dymo printer, and then distribute
the .ade with these settings so that they will work on each user's PC
(without doing individual PC compilations)?
Thanks,
