8 lpi in Dot Matrix printer

Hi all,
I have to created a Z format page for a Sapscript form.
The format page was created with width 210 MM and heigth 306 MM.
The format type was created with my format page as atribute and the device type is EPESCP9 EPSON ESC/P 9-pin printer .
Well, here is the problem, when the form is printed the printer don't put the next page in the rigth position, the printer put a big space before begin print the next page.
Inside the configuration of Device type i have the " Printer initialization " with something like that:
reset
\e\0x40
select us-ascii character set
\e\0x52\0x00
set line spacing 6 lpi
\e\0x32
set page length to 12 inch (=78 lines at 6 lpi)
\e\0x43\0x48
cancel bottom margin
\e\0x4f
set left margin to 0
\e\0x6c\0x00
select lq quality
\e\0x78\0x01
select non-proportional spacing
\e\0x70\0x00
someone can help with the codes for may format page ?
thanks.

Hi julio,
I have also faced a similar issue, But now resolved with the printer side page format setting.
You have to change the page format of the printer same as your sap page format.
Please check with the BASIS guy.
Thanks,

Hi Vishnu,
Above you have the following commands:
set line spacing 6 LPI
\e\0x32
set page length 86 lines
\e\0x43\0x46
46 HEX = 70
So the above settings mean 70 lines at 6 LPI = 11.66 inches.
So is the paper length 11.66 inches? If not, you should adjust the settings accordingly.
Regards,
Aidan

There is something I don't understand: if the barcode printed is visually correct, and exactly the same as with a laser printer, why do you want it would be better with a PDF (especially on a dot matrix printer).
Could you also tell us what symbology you use, and do you use smart form new barcode technology?

Hi Raje,
Try to take the print in inkjet or laserjet printer
just for confirmation purpose .
if it prints in that and doesn't print in dot matrix then the problem is with the dot matrix.
In that case ask the basis guys to install the relevent device driver for that dot matrix printer( as normally they would have installed some generic driver ).
Hope this helps.

Print to Dot-Matrix-Printer

Hi,
My actual job is to create an Report in Oracle Reports 10, running on an IBM AIX Unix Server and direct the output to an Dot-Matrix Printer.
The Report is ready for Preview.
What Parameter should be set as Report_DesFormat for that Dot-Matrix Printer?
I found only the list HTML, HTMLCSS, PDF, RTF, POSTSCRIPT, XML but the Printer can not unterstand any of these formats.
Thanks for any help
Rolf Mamat

Hi.
Using one of graphical destination format can lead to unexpected results. What you should do is to configure your printer at the system OS level. Then you should include that printer into $ORACLE_HOME/guicommon/tk/admin/uiprint.txt file. The line you add to this file should be read as printer_name_you_specified_at_os_level:ASCII:1:some_comment:: For example :
my_dot_printer:ASCII:Testing printer::
Be aware of two colons at the end of the line.
For a destination format you should use one of predefined formats (dflt, wide, ...) or you can make your own format file which should be stored in $ORACLE_HOME/reports/printers directory. And dont forget to define your report design in character units.
Hope this answers your question.
Best regards.

yes. As long as it is a newer one (means not 15-20 years old). Do you have one? If so, provide the make/model. If you do not have one, which ones are you looking to purchase?

Sales invoice Smartform printing in dot matrix printer in sucession

Dear all,
I am trying to Print Sales invoice on Dot matrix Printer.
My First Invoice is printed ok, but if i try to print second invoice without manually adjusting the paper the alignment on printer goes haywiered.
Do we have some option in smartform where we can trigger new page command.

Hi Amiya,
you need to check the paperformat which is used. I'm pretty sure that there is a wrong paperformat selected. The supported paperformats are published in the official documentation of the printer-model.

Problem with custom paper size on dot matrix printer

Hi All,
I'm using CR2008 with updated to SP2. I have a problem with custom paper size (W=21; H=14), the CR Viewer show report with custom paper size correctly but when I print it to a dot matrix printer (Epson LQ 300+) the content was rotated to landscape. If print to a laser printer the content was printed correctly. My report was printed correctly by CR10 or previous versions I got this issue when upgraded to CR2008. I aslo tested my computer and printer with orther application like MS Word the printing have no problem with custom paper size.
Thanks for any advice for me.
Han

Looking at the Epson LQ 300+ driver, I see that the latest update is from 2002. In my experience, most matrix printer drivers are not unicode. Crystal Reports is designed to only work with unicode printer drivers. See the [How Printer Driver Options Affect a Report|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/boc/index?rid=/library/uuid/a09051e9-721e-2b10-11b6-f9c65c64ef29&overridelayout=true] article, page 6 for details. Also, see [this|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/oss_notes_boj/sdn_oss_boj_dev/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/scn_bosap/notes.do] note.
Finally, see if you can print from the CR designer to this printer and if you get the correct results here.

Draft mode is not by font. It is a specific printer mode. If you can not manually setup the mode, B1 may not have any abilities to print in this mode.

If you are using the 2005 version you can use also the Epson FX-890.

Page not printing on Dot Matrix Printer

Dear Experts,
I had requirment to print the PO layout on a stationary which is bigger than a4 and bit lesser than a3
I found that page as 370(Width) and 295(hight). So according to it I created a new page format in SAP coz I didnt have any page format near to it. For setting up the new page format I did these steps:
1) Page Format
2) Format Types
3) Device Types.
All these are done. also I have attached my Z smartform in the NEU output type in NACE.
Now when I excute SF and try to print that its not getting triggering on the printer.
I have taken printer as LP01.
Please suggest. Where I am wrong.
-=Soni=-

Hi,
You need to assign the created page format to the device type used. Which device type is defined in output device LP01? Also if it is a device type with Line Printer Driver II, you also need to add the commands in the Printer Initialization action of the page format within the device type with commands to tell the printer the length of the page.
See the thread Re: DOT MATRIX PRINT is not coming correctly

Crystal Report printing on dot-matrix printer

Hello,
I've developed an application using VB.NET and Crystal Reports in VS2008. The report generated gets printed correctly on modern laser or inkjet printers. However, the entire formatting gets affected when I print these reports on dot matrix printer. Apart from that. the print speed is very slow. I tried exporting the report to PDF, DOC and other formats - but no solution. There was Export to Text function, which is not working in Crystal Reports now.
After a research on this issue, I found out few links to some solutions - which actually doesn't work. These links are as follows:
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/forums/en-US/vscrystalreports/thread/e24a8084-ad53-48bc-a7d5-065ef82636ac
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/vscrystalreports/thread/dd506c66-4cdc-48a7-9fa8-2c6f14daef24/ (Same issue in C#)
I've seen some software, in which, when Print on Dot Matrix (custom menu option) is selected, data is sent to DOS mode and reports are printed from DOS mode.
Is there any solution for this? OR DOS mode is the only solution?
This is high priority issue. Even though we're moving ahead in IT industry, govt. still depend on 4 color dot matrix printer reports.
Waiting for solution
