Only display a band when the document is printed - jasper-reports

Is there a built-in parameter in iReport/JasperReports Server that will allow me to hide a band when a report is displayed in JasperReports Server, but display the band when the report is printed? I don't want to display my report footers when the user is viewing reports on-screen in JasperReports Server.

Static Text box display every page in Multiple columns in Crystal Reports

I want to display a blank text box at every page display in crystal report with Multiple Column as in the picture below. Can we do that in Crystal Report 2016 SP7?
Crystal Reports lays out content in sections.
So you need to identify the section you wish to use for the text object.
Then, simply place the text object in that section.
If the problem is that you don't know which section, please describe the use case in more detail.

Crystal Reports || Show Text when Report is Blank

​I have a crystal report which has 5 subreports. When there is no data then the report is coming as blank which is working as expected.
Now I have added a new Report Header section in the main report and added a static text (not from the database). So, when I am running the report whether it is blank or has data, the new section should be visible. So, it this section is visible only when the report has data. When there is no data, then this section is also not visible.
There is no suppression or formatting in this section but still, it is not showing in case of a blank report. I tried adding New Page Header Section also, Page and Report footer section also but it is not coming in any case when the report is blank.
Any suggestion to show that section in both cases, with and without data?
I have posted the same question on sap website and had long discussion. If anyone facing this issue, can check the thread at below link

iReports 4.5.1 Sub Reports Display only in the last page with not page numbers in the footer

How do I display a sub report (actually two) only in the last page of my report. At the same time I don't want the parent reports header and footer informations displayed in that last page where I am displaying my sub reports.
I am using:
iReport 4.5.1 as my report designer and Oracle 11g/Stored procedures that returns a ref cursor.
Put the two subreports on the summary band and then in the report properties make sure you check the 'Summary on a new page' field and uncheck the 'Summary with page header and footer' field.

jasper report header not printed on summary page

I'm using Jasper reports. I have a page header, detail & summary band. The page header is repeated on all pages but sometimes when only the summary part moves into last page as the detail gets over in the page before that. The header is not printed on the last page i.e summary page.
Does somebody have any idea as to why the page header is not printed on the summary page. Is there some other way to print header on summary page.
By default, the page header does not apply to the summary band.
Since Jasper 3.6.1, there is a report property that can be used to force the summary band also to have page header, called Summary with Page header and footer. You should check it in iReport, or set isSummaryWithPageHeaderAndFooter="true" in the jasperReport tag.
In previous versions, before 3.7.6, you can put your content on band
'lastPageFooterBand',
Because the header content going to be repeated.
Other solution is:
add a new band into your report.
In my case, I was using ireport 3.0. I tested the two situations and worked perfectly.
