Tally software and Printing go hand in hand. A truly Tally user cannot do without printing in Tally. The most beautiful thing about Tally is that what ever screen you can see in Tally irrespective of what report it is or what voucher it is you can take a print out of it. To add one more facility you can take printout after satisfying your self with print preview. The best and most easiest way to take print out is to print every thing on Laser printer. But most of the users who have a great work load use Dot matrix printer to save printing cost and to increase printing speed.To facilitate the users, Tally has three printing formats or printing modes.
- Dot Matrix format
- Neat mode
- Quick/Draft
All the three modes can work on dot matrix mode but printer have to do extra efforts to work on Neat mode. So user of dot matrix printer work on Dot Matrix mode or in Quick/Draft Mode. The speed of printing, which matters to most of the users is fastest in Quick/Draft mode but the quality is also a little bit poor.
Neat mode is good for laser / Ink jet printers which has an added feature of print preview, which helps you to let it view the size and the contents to be printed.
How to Print :
To print any screen visible you have to press Alt + P or just click on print button on top left side of Tally menu in Tally 8.1 and in the button bar in Tally 7.2 and lower versions.
Few thing has to be decided before continuing with printing. These options can be checked before giving the final printing.
Few thing has to be decided before continuing with printing. These options can be checked before giving the final printing.
- Check the print preview if you are using th Neat Mode. Use Alt + Z for zoom mode and Esc for Normal mode
- Check if how many copies of print you want to print. Click No. of Copies Button
- If you have pre printed stationery then you have to press Pre Printed Button on Right hand button bar.
- Check for printing configuration by pressing F12 button. This would give you the idea about size of the printing space.
- You can choose for printing style of invoice also in F12 configuration and check various options regarding printing. It can be Simple mode or without Simple Mode.
- Check the Select printer button to select the desired printer. by Default the default printer is picked up.
- You can change the title of the printing to be done. Press Title Button on button Bar.
- In Tally 8.1 you can select the language in which you want to print. e.g. If company is sending invoice in North India then, it can be printed in Hindi, Hinglish, Punjabi etc.
Troubleshooting the Printing Problems:
Most of the printing problems comes with dot matrix printer. The nature of problem is mostly regarding the size of printer and the size of paper you have defined.
In this case when ever you would try to print the software would exit unexpectedly with giving exceptional message. Some times the message would be insufficient height or width to allocate.
To trouble shoot you have to check of what is the paper size defined in the printer. You can give your custom setting and see if the height and width of the paper matches with the height and width in the Tally printing menu. Try to strike the right combination by changing both the values one by one.
Another problem comes with printer driver. If the machine you are using for tally has too many printers then their printer drivers conflict with Tally. In case of such error tally would give you problem in opening. To sort it out Delete all unnecessary printer drivers.

Hi vinod,
There is nothing different or new in tally 9 regarding printing.
Sales invoice printing is normally done on dot matrix printer in tally.
Just select the printer in print menu after pressing Alt+P.
If tally is throwing you out with an error message then there is some mismatch of paper size defined in F12 configuration and actual paper size defined in printer .You have to check for paper size which is defined and the actual paper size . The paper size defined in tally should not be bigger then paper size defined in your printer.
Normally after hit and try you would arrive at correct size and get the printing.
Hi I’m using Tally 7.2, and can print with any printer local or network but i just installed HP 1020 Laserjet printer and shared on other pc. in this case i can print tally vouchers from local pc but cant from remote pc. Remote pc is printing anything except tally. pls help me out.
i am using dot matrix printer tvs msp 240. i use manual paper for printing. i need to press online every time i print. is there any settings so that i can print without pressing online button.
Hello.
Can Tally 9 be used by consignment agents? A consignment agent treats the goods as purchased only when he sells the goods. And the sales invoices should have all the excise details of the products.
Thank you for your help.
sir when i am printing invoice in tally 7.2 the address of the company truncated every time although it is not very long, divided in each given line as u can see in company info section. i am using wipro lx800 (dmp) printer. i have changed to different printer option from fanfold to letter size but no use. remaining printing is fine. no cut in details anywhere. please help.
sir, the data was rewrite through 7.2 version original data was in tally 5.4, now whenever i print my invoice the address of my company get truncated below my company name. using of F12 of no use although data converted from 4.5 version to 7.2 version giving no problem in printing . that’s why i think ‘old is gold’ & better like to stick with it.
For missing address in tally 7.2 jsut doe the following
1. check if there are addresses in all sundry ledgers.
2. While entring sales vouchers check for option in F12 Allow supplementary details is set to Yes
If it is Yes then add the address of the ledger manually.
If it is no then check for the second option of Print default names and address of the party . It should be set to Yes.
If it is still not sorted out then check for printing options.
The option Pre-Printed should be there and not the plain paper.
Hope it would solve you the problem.
I shall be very glad if someone could kindly send me TDL Author Serial No and Password, in response I can tell how to use a Tally single user licence in several computers at one time.
Please contact me at [email protected]

While using my Tally 9.0 the “Multi Account Printing” option is not active in Gateway of Tally. but can print the reports in other ways. Could u pls tell my why its so? Thanks

i tried hp officejet 4300 and got nice result
earlier i used to get correct printout from tally in my dot matrix printer

Educational version doesn’t support multi account printing. You Need the license version for this.
Saurabh ji You need the latest version of Tally 7.2 or a better crack if you are not using the license version.
How do i delete ledger in tally ?

i am using tally 7.2 my problem is that when i print any ledger the date is not printed completely eg. if it is 1.4.2008 it is ok but if it is 12.12.2007 than only 12.12.20is printed 07 is missing. i can see the complete date in print preview
to get the date correctly you have to install latest release of 3.14 of Tally 7.2. It would solve your problem
hi
my name is prashanth.
I installed hp laserjet printer in my system and i am not able to print from my tally 9. it is also not showing in the printer list.But i can get test page and all.why its so pls tell me.I tried everything possible.pls help me.
its urgent.
Prashanth, check if your printer is installed in windows or not. If you can see it in printer list then it would be automatically in Tally.
One other way to check it is go to MS Word and try to print some document through this printer. If it is done then printer is ok otherwise check for it. while printing in Tally select the printer and it would be there in the list.
Hi I am Shardul.
I am using Tally 9 release 2.12
I was using 4355 Officejet all in one to take prints from tally. I recently bought HP LaserJet 1020 Plus printer and installed it. Now it can print all documents and sheets proparly. But while taking print from Tally it is not incorporating proper information. It actually misses few last characters in some columns. I think it is not been able to print condensed mode which is essential to print from Tally. Please do provide solution for the same.

Hello TallyHelper,
We are using Tally6.3 Multiuser Genuine version. We have 1 HP network printer for all ledger/voucher printing and 1 HP printer locally attached for cheque printing. We are using tally for last good 8-10 years with no major bugs in it. Atleast we can live with those bugs.
But one thing which is always hunting us is: every morning we need to select the printer in Tally which we wish to use for printing in every client. If we do not select any printer, it always displays ne000.
The printer in the printers list has already been selected as “Default” printer thru windows control panel. But still everytime is showing ne000.
If you could help me as how to set any printer as default printer for Tally, that would be a great help for us.
Thanks and Regards.

i suggest you to upgrade to tally 9 and get the latest of best out of Tally. As you are an old user i am surprised to know how come you do without latest tally. If not possible to upgrade then get the last release of tally 6.3 and check if this problem still persists.

Naveen, Please check out the print mode. It should be neat mode only.
then only it would show you the print preview.
Another thing is check if the printer is installed on computer. Then only print preview is shown.
Last thing to check is that print preview button on the right hand pane is selected. when it is selected the button would show no preview.
Hope it would solve your queries.

hello sir !!! in my pc when i give the print command the document opens in microsoft one note instead of getting directly printed so please help me !!!!
Hi – I'm having a strange problem with Tally. When printing in detailed format on my ledger accounts, the Date and Particulars field are printed as a full rectangle black box.
It is happening on places where the number of digits on any of the field are too many. For e.g.:
5-5-2011 prints completely fine
10-10-2011 will be printed as a black box. My guess is that the date field has a 'number of characters' limitation on printing.
Same happens for Particulars – if the description or name is within 20 or so characters, it prints fine, otherwise a giant black box.
Can anyone please tell me how to solve this problem?
Thanks!
Hello Sir,
I am using Tally7.2 and I am facing a problem that whenever I completes a Payment Voucher entry just before saving that entry it shows a print option, but I don't want this option.
Can you please help me in this?
Thank you!
Go to Account Info -> voucher Types -> Alter Select Payment voucher. There you would find one option at teh bottom saying print after saving. It is yes. Put it to no.
After pressing Alt+P for printing just press F12 and increase the top margin.
Check out the extra printer drivers, delete them all and only keep those which you are using. If this dosn't solve then remove the printer driver and install it again.
Check where is your config file while you installed tally. It should be where it is supposed to be. reinstall Tally and then check where Tally configuration save file is ?
your default printer is one note. Change it.
Upgrade your Tally version. This problem would be removed. otherwise change your printer or update your printer driver.
Click plain paper button on the right hand bottom side.
you cannot change the font types
