I notice a lot of folks on this forum use Devexpress Xtrareports as their report writer. Having looked at a few report writers, I am now seriously considering XtraReports. One issue that would cause concern me is the apparent lack of support for Dot Matrix Printers. A lot of our users still use Dot Matrix printers and will not be convinced to change. I have seen a few threads on the Devexprress fora ehich suggest that Dot Matrix Printers are not supported. Wondering here if anybody knoes if that is the case, and if so, are there any workarounds .?

Hi Jason,



I use DataTables for DX Reports. There is quite a bit on DX Reports at the end of this SF post: http://forum.strataframe.net/Topic27535-7-3.aspx



However I did run into problems with DataSources and DataTables - this post on the DX Forum provided the answer for me: http://www.devexpress.com/Support/Center/p/Q254448.aspx



Cheers, Peter

I did have a problem using Xtra Reports with Dot Matriz and custom paper sizes. I ended up having to "hand craft" that report other than that it is a great product.
