Control the printer output tray

Hi,
Is it possible to control the printer tray that JetForm prints to?? We have a single printer with multiple output trays, where we want to print one form to tray 1 and a different form to tray 2.
Any help would be appreciated.
Regards,

Hi David
There are different ways of controlling the output trays:
1. add -ato[traynumber] to your job line
2. add -ato[traynumber] to your task
3. add ^trayout [traynumber] to your data stream
4. add ^trayout [traynumber] to your preamble
Be aware that printer manufacturors are using different tray numbers.

Lab view programming to control the printer

Hi,
As part of my senior design, I am working on LAb view programming. Though I know some basics of lab view, I don't know how to apporach it in the right way. Our device is a dispenser (ink jet printer) which has to dispense user defined amount in user defined location. lab view program has to be interfaced with the printer to do so. I know some basics of lab view and currently I don't know where I am heading to. I have also read the one discussion forum on Lab view FPGA to control an inkjet printer which discussed about FPGA module.
Thanks,
Sundeep

No, I'm saying that depending on the level that you are interfacing would determine whether the FPGA would be a good answer. If you are interfacing to an existing inkjet printer, where you may need to just provide it with the appropriate values through an existing interface, then FPGA would probably not be the answer. If you are connecting at a lower hardware level where you need to directly control the print head, positioning "stuff" etc., then it might. But as I said, and you have reiterated, it is expensive. FPGA allows you to through "software" define a hardware logic. It is particularly good for those things that need very critical timings between signals as it basically programs a digital logic card, therefore the timings are no longer software/operating system dependent, they are in hardware, with outputs and internal signal changes dependent on internal, hardware, clock transistions. You mention that the printer is an epson inkjet. Are you talking a standard, plug it into a computer, epson printer? Are you expecting to "hack" its hardware to get control of those functions you mentioned, like user controlled ink quantity, etc.? You will have to tell us what you have in a little more detail, and what you expect to have to do. Interface to a printer can be hooking up a parallel, or usb connection and sending the codes to print (which in LabVIEW can be its own hurdle!) to the extreme of cutting into existing hardware to introduce "internal" control signals that substitute for the original. The first step to trying to solve your technical problem is being able to describe what it is that you are trying to do, in as much detail as possible.

Hello ,
I am changing the PO through IDOC. When ever there is change in the quantity ,net price and delivery date the print out put is generated autoamtically and changes are appearing the print output.
when ever there is change in the item text of PO print output is not generatiing but item text is updated in the PO.
If i change manually print out is generating for item text also but through IDOC print output is not generated . please help to slove this isuue.
i am passing the value as :
    idoc_data-segnam = 'E1BPMEPOTEXT'.
    e1bpmepotext-po_item = Po line item number .
    e1bpmepotext-text_id = txtid.
    e1bpmepotext-text_form = textform.
    e1bpmepotext-text_line = line item text .
    idoc_data-sdata = e1bpmepotext.
    APPEND idoc_data.

Controlling the printer

Hi,
I have an iPad 1 which is up to date with the latest O/S and a new Canon 6250 printer connected to a wireless router. I can print directly from the Apple Pages app and others like Goodreader but they all cause the printer to print from the rear paper tray which is where you put photo paper not the front plain paper tray.
There rear paper tray is usually empty while the fromt tray holds up to 150 sheets of plain paper. I wold prefer not to have to go and load the rear tray every time I want to rint from the iPad.
I suspect the reason this happens is the iPad is treaitng everything it prints as an image so despite writing a text document in Pages it gets printed as a photo. I doubt that is good for ink consumption either as the printing seems to ignore any printer settings to use plain paper etc.
Has anyine got any experience printing to Canon printers like this which may help? Or is there an app I culd install that gives more control over printing? Canon do an iPad photo priniting app but it is just for photos.
Thanks.

Dave, I assume you are using Airprint to print your documents? I believe the issue you're observing is a glitch in AirPrint when it is used in conjunction with an "all in one" printer that has can print photos as well as documents. Others have reported similar behavior with other printers, such as HP.
The problem is that AirPrint doesn't offer the user the choice of paper trays, paper sizes, image sizes, etc. In that way, it's a fairly limited app. On the other hand, the HP Home and Biz priniting app does offer these choices. I use an HP printer, and if I need something printed in a specific size or on a specific type of paper, I use this app instead of AirPrint. To the users of HP printers, I recommend getting this app (it's free) just because it offers so much more flexibility over AirPrint.
EDIT: I neglected to mention that Canon has a similar app, Canon i-Photo Print I think it is called, but it only prints with photos, not documents (Word, PDF, etc.). It may let you choose different PHOTO sizes and papers, though. Worth a look anyway.

How to control the printer selection popup in SAP SCRIPT .

Hi all,
I have written a print program which is calling 5 different layouts forms and printing all the shipping related documents such as packing list, delivery note, shipping label etc . The print program is
attached to a single output type ZEDM.
The issue is that for printing every document a pop-up comes for the printer selection and i want
only one pop-up and all the document should be printed.
Can anyone tell how to control the pop-ups.
Thanks and Regards,

Why is the print output including spaces between every letter?

All printed output has spaces between each letter. Example:
A l l p r i n t e d o u t p u t h a s s p a c e s b e t w e e n e a c h l e t t e r .

Caused by a Bug in 4.0b12, Was fixed in the 02-28 nightly, and the fix will be in the 4.0RC version due to be released next week.

How to control the printing resolution in JAVA

Do we have any control on printing resolution in JAVA?
If yes, how?
Because I can print out the component but its resolution is same as screen or even less.

Hi,
Maybe you have to be more explicit. What do you want to print? What Component? Only a image? A Swing component (JTree, JTable, JPanel, etc)?

Can I control the system output via Logic Pro?

I know how to record system output in Logic Pro (CH 13&14), but in order to do that, the tracks in Logic Pro must be muted to avoid feedback.
What I'm wondering is if I can control overall system output via a track/tracks in Logic Pro. I've got a Plextor PVR set up so that I can watch tv on my Mac, but when I connect my digital cable box to it the volume is down at around a faint -24 dB. I'd like to be able to boost the gain with Logic.
Thanks in advance for any help!

Never mind. I found a cool app called Audio Hijack Pro that works perfectly for this.

Wondows are getting blackened on the printer Output in smartform

HI ,
whenever i see the print preview of the form output its looks fine o me ,but when i am printingt on printer its "Blackening few windows" which has got headers in it.
Cna anybody let me know th solution for this.
Thanks in advace,
Nitin

Hi everyboy,
I have the same problem. I create a smartform and print preview in screen shows all data and windows ok, but we try print in two differente printers and shows black windows.
I already change headers color but printing did not change, when I change saturation to a differrent percentage print with dot points in the area but cant print with solid color in cell.
Is there any idea to solve this? I download the form to have a backup, this action could affect some format in the form?
Thanks in advance,

Controlling the same output from multiple locations in vi

Hi
I have a very basic question which I do not seem to find the answer to though.
When programming a VI for measurement and control using a standard DAQ device, for example 6281 I
often want to control the same digital out pin from various places in the program.
F.ex. In the beginning I want P0,0 to be high, then later somewhere deep in the program in a while loop I want
to set P0,0 to low. How do I do this. I keep getting the message that the resource is reserved.
This I have the same question with AI, AO and Digital in.
The DAQassistant does not work and doing this more manually by creating a task, stopping it and clearing it has been problematic.
Can anyone help? Hopefully with a demonstration VI if you have it?
Thanks for reading all the way down though

You should create a functional global that stores tasks for each port.
In the following image I have some code that should work.
It looks up the addressed port and creates a new task if needed, otherwise it will call the old task.
Be sure to call this VI with 'Stop?'=True at the end of your program.

How to control the print out

Hai
I create the scrip program I want to get only one print out in each document number. After that I want to restrict that print out that each document number how I should do it. Ex: I got the print out doc no. 00111 at once after that never gives the print out if I click print commandI want to restrict only one print out (I create the Z-table and I want to pass flag when I press print command but I dont knw how to do it if I get the solution for that my problem wil solve)

Hi,
try this..
data: v_docno like ztable-docno.
select docno from ztable
                    into v_docno
                    where docno eq <curr doc no> and "u should provide current doc no here
                              printed eq 'X'.                     " suppose 'printed' is the flag field name
if sy-subrc NE 0. "i.e if form is not printed for this doc no, then print form
call function open_form
call function write_form.
call function close_form.
elseif.
