The
PageByPagePrint property is used to:
- Ask a report to be printed page by page. Each page of the report will be sent separately to the printer spooler. This option is used to reduce the size of the print spooler for example.
- Find out the print mode of the report (page by page or all at once).
Remark: To print a report page-by-page, you can also check "Send each page separately to the printer" in the "Options" tab of the report description window.
// Print the report page by page
