[Dx4win] DX4Win Label Printing Problem
I've been using DX4Win for ages, but have recently had problems printing QSL labels. I can't get it to print to my Brother QL-550 label printer. I can print a test page from the Win 10 "devices" set-up page, but when I print from DX4Win, I get an error message saying that labels in the printer don't match what the application is calling for. The weird part is that the size of the label cited in the error message is the same as what's specified in the software and what's in the machine. I corresponded with Paul about this issue a year or so ago with no success. Any help will be greatly appreciated! 73, Eric W3DQ __ DX4WIN mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/dx4win Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:DX4WIN@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
[Dx4win] Label printing problem
I am using Avery type 5160 labels. DX4WIN 8.05. Printer is a HP photosmart 7900 series. 3 QSL's have been selected I hit Print QSL labels Print via manager is selected QSL method - tried ALL DIRECT Then, Edit - Then Preview It shows the heading and 3 QSO's on the label With lines and no commercial (the lines appear to extend past the right end of the label, but do not show that way on the printed label). Problem: only two QSO's are printed on the label And the third QSO is on a separate label. I used to do this and have another line with 73 etc de K3WC on the bottom and it all fit on the label PREFERENCES - tried Rep/Lab at 10 8 and no Messages. I have read all 5000 pages in the help file on QSL printing and cannot see/understand where my problem lies. Any help sure would be appreciated 73, Dusty - K3WC k3wc at Verizon dot net __ DX4WIN mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/dx4win Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:DX4WIN@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
Re: [Dx4win] Label printing problem
I believe the label height is too small for 3 qsos. Try to make it bigger or make smaller the used fonts. Double click the name of the fonts to change the size (and the fonts). Maybe my notes help you also... See http://users.otenet.gr/~sv1dpi1/en/dx4win/printqsos.html and better this picture http://users.otenet.gr/~ahvlasis/pictures/dx4win/labelsheet.jpg to understand better how it works. 73 Kostas, SV1DPI Στις 29/3/2013 21:31, ο/η Dusty Chapman έγραψε: I am using Avery type 5160 labels.

[Dx4win] Label printing problem
I have recently been having a problem printing QSL labels from DX4win ver. 8.05. Even though I have chosen more than one QSO to print a label, when I go to print, the Print QSL labels window only shows 1 QSO to print. It also defaults to checkmarking the printing of the manager labels and method labels as well as the commercial even though I keep unchecking them. I think there is a file corrupt somewhere but not sure of the remedy. I am looking for suggestions. 73 Jay Jay Hainline KA9CFD Colchester, IL EN40om __ DX4WIN mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/dx4win Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:DX4WIN@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
Re: [Dx4win] Label printing problem
Jay are you sure that your label has the space for more than 1 qso? I use it always at 0 (it means print as more as you can). So i have not tested if other numbers work but 0 works for sure. Try to change the label height and make a preview on the screen. Otherwise double click the fonts and reduce the font size. I remember that there is a problem with the commercial (it comes back on). Probably a bug...

Re: [Dx4win] Label printing problem
I am not sure how to make it more easy to understand. I had 2 QSL cards from 2 different stations that I needed to print a label for. After placing the Y in the label field and saving it with the F10 key for each of the 2 log entries, I went to print my 2 labels but DX4WIN would only show 1 label to print rather than 2 even though both log entries had the Y in the label field. I was not printing by groups. I was printing ALL. 73 Jay Jay Hainline KA9CFD Colchester, IL EN40om -Original Message- From: Kostas Stamatis Sent: Friday, July 15, 2011 17:42 To: Jay Hainline Subject: Re: [Dx4win] Label printing problem Jay i can not understand whta you mean abt different callsigns.

Re: [Dx4win] Label printing problem
Then you probably had different qsl method in each qso. For example buro in the first qso and direct in the second one. If you have the same qsl method then both qsos will be printed in one label, if qsl method is different then two seperate lables will be printed. 73 Kostas sv1dpi - Original Message - From: Jay Hainline ka9...@winco.net To: Kostas Stamatis sv1...@otenet.gr; Dx4win dx4win@mailman.qth.net Sent: Friday, July 15, 2011 9:16 PM Subject: Re: [Dx4win] Label printing problem I am not sure how to make it more easy to understand.

[Dx4win] Label Printing Problem..
Using version 8.02 DX4WIN and have problem printing labels with this version. The only info that is printed is the Pse QSL etc but nothing re the dx station or his report information. Any suggestions on what to try would be most appreciated. Our interest is for individual qsls', not for a specific group. Our previous approach has been using Avery 8460 labels on letter size label forms.

[Dx4win] Label printing problem
David, I have seen this bug with a HP1100 printer; downloading the latest driver for your printer may solve the problem. If you use the latest version already, you can try to define a label format using a custom page size of 8.5 x 11 (It was the letter size that caused the problem) Paul At 06:30 AM 5/6/02 -0500, David M. Monfried wrote: Looking to solve a small problem with DX4WIN (ver 5.03), which I just installed on a new computer in the shack. I'm an experienced DX4WIN and am totally frustrated that I cannot figure this one out! The problem is in the QSL label printing routine. I use Avery 5161 labels - two labels across each sheet, 10 down each page. Going to Labels/Print QSL Labels/Edit, I have 5161 selected. But when I select Preview, what I see on the Preview Editor is 1.5 labels across, with the page only 5 1/2 inches - rather than 8 1/2 inches - wide. That results in only 1 1/2 labels across the sheet, rather than two.It prints that way, as well. In the label editor, the paper specified is Letter, which is 8 1/2 x 11 inches, although, of course, it's grayed out a result of selecting 5161. Any ideas? Many thanks.
