JS Print orientation problem #26

Open smtomes opened 7 years ago

smtomes commented 7 years ago

I do not have access rights to edit the printing orientation that the website that I am logging into is using. JS Print is completely taking over the print job, and is causing the print orientation to print from left to right on the width of the label instead of top to bottom along the length of the label. This causes the text and images to become truncated. I've tried to change the "set default options" in the cups print server, but none of the printing options correct this orientation issue. I understand the code that is written to fix the issue, but I do not have the appropriate user access on this website to edit this. I added a picture of the label that is not printing correctly. Any thoughts? Thanks.

Can you provide source code of printing job to check it?

smtomes commented 7 years ago

This is a snippet of the check-in input box you use in order to check in a child at the day care center. Once you find the child's name in this search bar it will allow you to add the child to the database which then prints a label for the child that was checked into the day care center. I copied the page source for this check-in portion of the website (same page as snippet). I did a CTRL-F to find any reference to orientation, but I did not find any. Am I looking in the wrong area for the source code?

I don't see here code for printing. If I understand correctly you are not developer of this site, you are user? I see that there are instructions how to setup browser to use this site http://wiki.acstechnologies.com/display/realm/Review+Check-In+Requirements The better way is to ask developers how to tune your browser to fit design needs.

Thanks for referencing this information. I'm going to feel stupid if this was the answer to my problem. :)

That is correct. I'm just a user of the website. I am not a developer. I will contact the developer if changing the print settings in Firefox does not work. Look forward to getting home from work and trying this!
