I am printing a report to a label printer for labeling inventory. The
exact code is:
        DoCmd.OpenReport strReportName, acViewPreview, , strDataFilter
        
        If lngPrintCount > 0 Then
            DoCmd.PrintOut acPrintAll, , , , lngPrintCount
            DoCmd.Close acReport, strReportName
        End If

The problem is that the first label keeps coming out blank. The weird
thing is that if I put a break in the code at the first line and then
click the run button then the first label prints properly although I
have done nothing different other than stopping the code. I have tried
running a loop to slow things down, tried to repaint the object
(report) - nothing seems to work.
The entire process happening before the print is a bit involved and I
would rather not have to get into it here. I can tell you that it is a
Dymo label writer 330 printer and that I am setting the printer by
opening the report hidden first, then setting any report properties I
need then reopening the report using the code above.

Hi Brian,

I'm afraid I  don't have this label printer, so I can't set up a
testbed to see what it's waiting for. Perhaps one of the other
Researchers can help you out.

Hey Hammer,
I don't think the label printer is the issue. I'm thinking this would
be more of a known access problem when printing. The key is that if I
stop the code at the line after opening the report, then click run,
without doing anything else, then everything works fine.

Try putting a DoEvents statement in where you break.
