    Tips & Tricks (Frequently Asked Questions)

Q When I print an IEP, the "Section F: Services" records are not those of the selected student, or there are extra records for another student in the printout for Section F, and a different student's name is at the top of the page. HELP!
A


There is a known print bug in the EIEP for versions prior to 10/1/2002. If you have chosen NOT to preview your IEPs before printing, the services section may not print correctly. The workarounds for this bug are as follows:

  1. In the "user setup" area, click on the checkbox for "preview before printing." This will ensure that the only services records printed will be those for the IEP you are printing.

  2. When printing, do not select "Section F: Services" from the list of sections. Print the rest of the IEP, then go back to the Services section and print just that section, using the "Print" button in the navigation bar at the bottom.

  3. Before printing the entire IEP, go to the Services section, click the "Print" button in the navigation bar at the bottom, and choose to print only that section/page. Then, when the printing dialog box comes up, cancel printing. Next, immediately print the entire IEP.

  4. Go ahead and print the entire IEP without the preview, knowing the services page may or may not print the correct services information, then go back in and print the services page using the "print current page" option if it does not print OK. ([This is for risk-takers, gamblers, and others who are in a big enough hurry they're hoping they'll beat the odds on the IEP not printing right this time. :)]

  5. Download and the newest version of the EIEP for your AEA or school district, if that version is newer than 10/1/2002.
