Calling a Smartform through a driver program.

Question

Hi ALL,
I had created a smart-form and executed it without any errors.
Since its create a FM, which can be called by driver Program,when i called the smart-form FM from the driver program I get a Pop-up asking for the OUTPUT DEVICE. When we enter a device name its executed  properly and can see the print preview of the form.
My concern is to avoid that pop up, by giving the device value in the program itself. To do so it provided a options though which i can send the device type.
these are the values which i have passed.
outop-TDTITLE = 'testing for title'.
outop-xdfoutdev = 'LP01'. "output device type
   cparam-getotf = 'X'.
    cparam-no_dialog = 'X'.
   cparam-preview = ' '.
  CALL FUNCTION fm_name    "FM for smart-form.
    EXPORTING
  control_parameters = cparam
      output_options     = outop
*      user_settings      = 'X'
***    IMPORTING
**      job_output_info    = tab_otf_data
*     EXCEPTIONS
*       formatting_error   = 1
*       internal_error     = 2
*       send_error         = 3
*       user_canceled      = 4
*       OTHERS             = 5.
Can you tell where am I going wrong, so that can avoid that window.
Thanks,

Hi  shivendran,
I tried the mentioned code by mentioned by you. but still the issue exists that is the popup for output device.
DATA:fm_name TYPE  rs38l_fnam.
DATA: ls_control_pars TYPE  ssfctrlop,
           ls_output_opt   TYPE  ssfcompop.
  CALL FUNCTION 'SSF_FUNCTION_MODULE_NAME'
    EXPORTING
      formname           = 'z_smartform_test'
    IMPORTING
      fm_name            = fm_name
    EXCEPTIONS
      no_form            = 1
      no_function_module = 2
      OTHERS             = 3.
  IF sy-subrc  <> 0.
    MESSAGE ID sy-msgid TYPE sy-msgty NUMBER sy-msgno
            WITH sy-msgv1 sy-msgv2 sy-msgv3 sy-msgv4.
    EXIT.
  ENDIF.
ls_output_opt-tddest = 'LP01'.
ls_output_opt-tdimmed = 'X'.
ls_control_pars-no_dialog  = 'X' .
  CALL FUNCTION fm_name
    EXPORTING
     control_parameters = ls_control_pars
      output_options     = ls_output_opt
  IF sy-subrc <> 0.
    MESSAGE ID sy-msgid TYPE sy-msgty NUMBER sy-msgno
            WITH sy-msgv1 sy-msgv2 sy-msgv3 sy-msgv4.
    EXIT.
  ENDIF.
this is code which i tried to call my amartform from driver program.
I tried assigning the default output device by
open a session:
Clickon the system menu->user profile -> own data
then goto the defaults tab. in the spool control section maintain output device (your printer name where you want to print)
but still the problem exists.
Please  help to resolve this issue.
Thanks,
Lalitkumar.
