REP-0713 error when using r25run32 with a command line

Help,

I have what seems to be a very strange problem. I have the following command line saved as a batch file called Test.bat. If I double-click on it or run it from the command prompt, it works fine - it runs a report and prints it.

d:\orant\bin\r25run32.exe report=test1.rep userid=user1/user1_at_testdb paramform=no destype=printer desname="HP" desformat=dflt printjob=no

However, if I use a program scheduler, it crashes with the error: "REP-0713: Invalid printer name 'HP' specified by parameter name DESNAME"

I have tried Norton Scheduler, NT AT command, as well as a couple other shareware programs. All crash with this error. If I use background=yes, again it works if I run it, but when a scheduler starts it, the Report Server crashes. Instead, if I use batch=yes, it just crashes after a few seconds.

If I use printjob=yes, the printer dialog pops up, I press OK, and it works fine. I have tried outputting to a PDF file, but again, it works if I run the batch file, but not when a scheduler does.

I am using Reports 2.5, Oracle 7.1, NT4 SP6. I have also tried the Reports 3.0 runtime (r30run32) with the same results. I just need to run/print a report automatically every day.

Any ideas are greatly appreciated, Thanks.
