ABAP list printing on device I2SWIN

Hello,
we have defined output device (printer) with device type I2SWIN for printing on users frontend computers via SAPlpd. Settings of I2SWIN device type is default:
SAPlpd/SAPWIN driver 3.0
Do not use printer driver for ABAP list print
Character set 1406 Printer I2SWIN  ISO 8859-2 (MS Windows Latin-2)
We can print ABAP lists on this device. We define formats and set margins and orientation in this formats. But these settings are ignored during printing. If we change in I2SWIN setting Printer driver to "Printer driver for SWIN printing using SAPLP/Windows", then margins are accepted and printed, but there are wrong characters in print output (not in requested code page).
Could anybody help us how to set print to accept margins in ABAP lists and also have print output with good code page.
         Thank you

O.K., we use margin settings according SAP Note 21738 and all works fine.

  • Abap Lists - Printing - defining font and CPI and applying to printed text

    Hi,
    I am trying to define some forms for matrix printing. I should change the font type, and CPI.
    We will print ABAP Lists.
    I see my fonts (courier, 100, 12CPI, Prnt.Ctrl SF005) are defined in SE73.
    In SPAD - device type (choose spec. one) u2013 Print Controls (tab) I can see SF005, marked u201EDirectu201C column, as well as u201EHexadecimalu201C. Control Character Sequence is 1B6B001B4D121B57001B461B35.
    I can see 31 more SFxxx Print controls here.
    How do I apply specific Print Controls (SF005) from this list to a printed document? (I assume this is the list of available prnt.ctrls that can be used for printing, but how do I "select" specific ones and apply them to document print?)
    How do I choose u201ECOL0N: Color off, normal fontu201D (intensified OFF u2013 I heard that sap print in bold by default)?
    Thanks in advance,
    cheers,
    Nenad
    P.s. u2013 in printer settings the default font is Coourier 10, 12CPI, draft output. If I change this settings on printer directly, no effect is applied on printed documents... Printing from ECC 6.0

    hi again,
    more info:
    In Formats (Z_fakt1) - Formats (tab): u201EPrinter initializationu201C, I can see some predefined settings, but it is copied from some IBM printer, and I wonder is it correct. There is nothing about font type:
    #reset
    \e\0x40
    select US-ASCII character set
    \e\0x52\0x00
    set line spacing 6 LPI
    \e\0x32
    set page length to 12 inch (=72 lines at 6 LPI)
    \e\0x43\0x48
    cancel bottom margin
    \e\0x4F
    set left margin to 0
    \e\0x6C\0x00
    select draft quality
    \e\0x78\0x00
    select non-proportional spacing
    \e\0x70\0x00
    cancel condensed printing
    \0x12
    disable double-width printing
    \e\0x57\0x00
    select 10 CPI
    \e\0x50
    Result here is: 11CPI. Bold. Looks like "Times New Roman"
    The exact copy from IBM printer is used for another format (Z_fakt2), nothing is different except:
    select 12 CPI
    \e\0x4D
    Result here is: 10CPI. Bold. I am under BIG impression that the font type is different. But it is possible the font looks different just due to a size difference. Looks like "Courier New"
    In both cases I print predefined text with same output device, same device type.
    When I set 15CPI (0x67) u2013 I still get 10CPI, just the font looks more plain, more "draft" then before - like once in DOS. I am certain that these font type is definitely different then before (for example, here "W" have parallel endings). These fonts are even more suitable for these reports...
    Shouldn't the fonts be SMALLER and more of them in 1 inch (15 characters per inch) now then 10CPI (10 character per inch - less characters to fill 1 inch)??
    If I set 1CPI - shouldn't there be just 1 big character on 24,5mm?
    When I delete all entry (except # reset \e\0x40) from "Printer initialization" for one Format, the print output looks exact as before deleting (and saving)?!
    I would like to set Courier font, (really 12CPI), plain text, no bold.
    Where should I set this options?
    Thanks and sorry for long input, but the more info you have, the more insight ou have in my problem...
    Cheers,

  • ABAP list printing

    Hi friends,
    Developed a report where line size is upto 255. While taking print out the font size becomes very small.
    Another way is to download list in  notepad and then take printout. But this disturbs the column headings.
    Is there any option to change the default A4 page size to A3. Or to split list in two portions vertically.
    Pls help.
    Thanks
    anu

    go  to  transaction SPAD.
    AND  IN OUTPUT  DEVISE CHANGE  PAGE  FORMAT

  • ABAP List - Printing problem

    Hi,
       We have a Z format Z_65_1023 assigned to the LOCL printer.  When the output is displayed using the SPOOL the format is fine.  But when the output is sent to the printer, the SAPLPD window has the following message:
    SAPLPD: job xxx sent to printer(raw): nnnn bytes finished.
    And it prints a one line message of hexadecimal values.
    Has anyone faced such a problem before?  If yes, please reply.

  • Alv List  print printer information in 1st page

    Hi,
    At the time of alv list printing the following information is printed on 1st page. How to avoid this information when printing.
    INITSTRING

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi GoldMoon,
    (edit) Print another basic ABAP list (print anything else) on the same printer to see if that first page is printed. If yes, it's probably either SAP, OS, or Print Server cover page. They are explained in "cover page" SDN wiki, there are explanations how the cover page can be output (and so you can deduce how to remove it).
    Best regards,

  • ABAP list report wont print on Z device type with Z format

    Our developer have created a report which outputs data in ABAP list format and the standard format would not fit. We have since created a custom format and copied a device type in to custom device type. So we now have a custom format and custom device type. However when we print, it spools correctly and shows as green but the report wont print. The only thing that gets printed is
    "Sort criteria         AscdgDescndSubtotalGRAND  TOTAL  :               X                X     PROJ" "
    The abap list format is Z_100_500. Basically the report has 450 columns and hence we created this format.
    I am not sure what this means. I have been advised by SAP to follow instruction on note 17895 - Adapting print list formats for customers however i cant fully comprehend point 5 of the note and I believe this is why it wont print. Has anyone adapted ABAP list using this note. Can you please let me know how i should go about printer initialisation mentioned in the noted.
    We have checked everything however dont seem to get around the issue. Any ideas will be appreciated

  • Trying to print ABAP List in Unix

    I am new to SAP and I am trying to print using unix as my host spooler.  I am printing to a Xerox machine connected to a print server.  I am just trying to print the test ABAP list you get when you go into SPAD and select Utilities/ouput devices then select ABAP List.  When I print this I get nothing but ABCD and a bunch of numbers.  I am trying to figure if the ABAP list is supposed to be that way or if something is wrong with my driver.

    Hello Rodney,
    What device type did you specify in the SPAD Output Device definition?  You need to make sure you select a device type which is compatible with the printer.  If the printer supports postscript printer language, then you need to select the 'Post2' or 'postscpt' device types.  If the printer support PCL, then test with 'hplj4' device type.  Most likely the currently selected device type is not compatible with the printer and therefore creates a print file which the printer cannot interpret.

  • Printing a simple abap-list in panel-format (DIN A4)

    Hallo Ladies and Gentlemen,
    i have a simple abap-list. when i print it, the list will be printed in landscape-format. how can i change it? i have to print it in panel-format.
    Thanks a lot,
    Marcel

    Hi Marcel,
    I think you have to click on the "Full Administration" button t see the option for "Page Formats"...
    Also go to transaction SPAD,
    in Devices / Servers tab press Output devices button
    Double click on the device type of your printer
    Press button Formats
    and here you get a list of all formats for your printer

  • Duplex printing of abap list

    Hi,
    we are trying to printing some abap lists on both sides. ich have found some information about duplex printing of sapscript / smart forms, but nothing about printing of abap lists.
    Ich habe changed attribute printmode ( transaction SPAD ) of printer to Duplex mode, and print parameter DUPPRINT of the user is changed too ( Function UPDATE_DEFAULT_PRINTPARAMS DB-Table TPRI_DEF ).
    But still could not able to print. Thanks in advance for your help.
    Regards,
    Sumiya.

    You can print ABAP lists in duplex, if your printer supports duplex printing and uses one of the following device types:
    ->        Device types for PCL-5 printers:
            HP4550
            HP8550
            HP9000
            HPLJ1100
            HPLJ8000
            HPLJ4000
            BRHL
    ->        Device type for Prescribe II printers: KYOFS170
    ->        Device type for PostScript Level 2 printers: POST2
    To be able to use both the simplex and duplex modes of your printer for list printing, you should create two different device definitions. For information about the procedure for doing this, see Creating Output Devices (http://help.sap.com/saphelp_webas620/helpdata/en/7e/36e4c4023411d399b70000e83dd9fc/content.htm).
    On the Output attributes tab for the device definition, specify the desired Print mode.

    Please reqard points if helpful.
    Good Luck.

  • Printing A3 page format using ABAP List from SAP is a problem...

    Hi Experts,
    I am trying to print a standard output (ABAP List) A3 page size from SAP.
    I used SWIN, SAPWIN, I9HP4 device types, but none of them worked.
    I created page format type ZYEVMIYE 290MM – 420MM and the page format L120, W200. In order to make it usable with page size is A3. Unfortunately this did not work either.
    The behaviour of the problem is when I tried to print with the device types that mentioned above then printer indicator comes to an error. And nothing comes out from the printer.
    Just to be on the safe side I made a test from windows self test, it resulted success with A3 page size format. So from this point of the view I got a thought that somehow SAP (selected device types) is not able to send correct signal to Printer for page size A3, because on the printer information screen displays ‘load Tray2 for A4’ this is showing that SAP sends Printer a signal for page format A4.
    I need help on how to make SAP (selected device type) send a correct signal to Printer in order to printout A3 page size format.
    Quick reply will much be appreciated.

  • Inactivate the print button is the ABAP list

    How can I inactivate the print button in the report program (ABAP list)?
    I can inactive the print button on selection screen by using 'RS_SET_SELSCREEN_STATUS'. But can't achieve the same effect after the program jumped to the list output screen.
    Thanks!

    hi,
    To achieve this you need to create your own custom pf-status. The tcode for creating new pf-status is se41. Goto SE41, enter the program name and click create.
    Enter the menu bar buttons, application tool bar button and Function key as per your requirement. Active the pf-status. Once the pf-status is created, use this in your program using the statement.
    set pf-status 'ZPF'.
