Hi,

This is actually correct, since printers do not understand HTML.

What Printer Driver are you using in Oracle Apps? These days most would use the "--PASTA Universal Printer Type", which uses the "FNDPSTAX" program to print all output.

Regardless of the output type defined in the Concurrent Program (HTML in your case), this is converted into PostScript by the FNDPSTAX program (using the options specified in the pasta.cfg file) before being sent to the Printer. Unless you have some sort of "html2ps" utility (e.g. http://user.it.uu.se/~jan/html2psug.html), Oracle Apps will treat the raw HTML source as plain text, convert this to PostScript and send it on to the printer, which will print off the Source Code quite nicely.

Hope this helps.

Paul

Hi,

I need to know.

We are printing html format from oracle app. But instead of the output
sending to the printer, we get the source code printing. What can be the
problem?

Thanks
