Duplex printing first form - both sides

I've tried to locate the answer to my issue in the mix ... point me to the answer if I missed it under someone else's question.
We just got a new printer that has duplex capability. We would like to use this capability and I am converting a two ifd's to one with two pages. The first page has some dynamic data and the second doesn't have any dynamic data. The printer is duplexing but we only get the first page.
The only error in the Central log is the $POSITION field is missing (I assumed from the second page so I added it). No better. I don't see this new printer under presentment targets but since the printer is actually duplexing I'm thinking it is the form or dat file. I added to a test dat file a field to the non-dynamic data and attempted to 'call' the next form. What am I missing?

Hi Nancy
We're doing invoices where we print Terms & Conditions (which is a static subform) on flip side of page 1 (i.e. duplex) and then print the rest of the document without duplex.
I'm controlling this within the preamble by adding "^duplex on" at the top and the dynamic page 1 causes a page break I call the T&C subform and then use this
^define group:PAGETWO \page1,"duplex off"\group[NEXTGROUP].
to call next dynamic page.
Additionally we have conditions for when to print T&C. If you want the whole solution please drop me a line at

  • SMART FORM Both side printing

    Hi,
    I need help in printing smartform in both side. it has to print terms and conditions on back side of page after printing main window for each page.

    Hi Praveen,
    Try this logic!!!
    Create total 3 pages. For example
    Page 1 (items page)
    Page 2 & page 3 (terms & conditions)
    page1 (next page) = page2
    page2 (next page ) = page1
    page3 (next page) = blank
    Now In your main window in page 1, just after the table create a command and give next page as page3.
    I hope this will help you to close this thread.
    Appreciate if found helpful.
    Cheers!!!!

  • Printing scripi on both side  of paper

    Hi All,
    I want to print script on both side of paper.
    my observations.
    the output device they are using it prints report on both side of paper.
    in script , processing mode selected D  and i am printing dunning letters.
    in main program used NEW-PAGE. that should not make any difference.
    let me know from script side what i have to do and also from my device type what else i have to check.
    urgent
    Regards

    hi,
      We can print both sides of the paper
    <b>You switch to duplex or tumble duplex mode with a form page for which one of these modes is specified. To continue printing in the current mode, for follow-on pages you must define another page in which the Print mode field is empty. Otherwise, the following pages after the mode switch will continue to be printed only on the front sides of new sheets of paper.
    The reason: When SAPscript sends a page with Print mode D or T to the printer, it not only sets the print mode accordingly. To ensure that the first page in the new mode is correctly output, SAPscript also instructs the printer to output the page on the front side of a sheet. If SAPscript sends a sequence of D or T pages to the printer, the output is printed only on the front side of each sheet.
    You define a first page named FIRST for a form to be printed in duplex mode. You therefore set the Print mode in FIRST to D.
    To make the duplex printing work correctly, you must define a second page FOLLOWER in which Print mode is left empty. In the form definition, you specify FOLLOWER as the follow-on page for FIRST and for itself as well.
    Your text is then printed in duplex mode. FIRST switches the printer to duplex mode and forces printing of the first page on the front side of a new sheet. FOLLOWER accepts the duplex mode and sends no further mode print controls to the printer. The printer therefore alternately prints FOLLOWER pages on the fronts and backs of sheets.</b>
    The print controls that must be defined for a device type depend upon the SAPscript printer driver that is to be used with the device type.
    set the followint print control.
    <b>SPMDU</b>
    Begin duplex printing (both sides of paper). (Needed only if supported by device.)

    Abhishek Pandey.

    Hi Abhishek,
    In PAGE node u have Output Options Tab.
    In Output Options U can find the field Print Mode
    There u need to give the D.
    Default: No change of print mode
    S Begin new page in SIMPLEX mode (single-sided)
    D Begin new page in DUPLEX mode (double-sided)
    T Begin new page in TUMBLE DUPLEX mode (double-sided)
       DUPLEX:
         The current print mode is set to DUPLEX (double-sided print, long-edge
         binding) and a new page is started. A form page defined with DUPLEX is
         always printed on the front of the page, never on the back of the page.
         If the next form page contains the attribute value DEFAULT, it is output
         on the back of the page.

  • Photosmart 7160 Duplex Printing Out of Paper Side 2 Intermitte​nt Windows 7 USB

    The printer works fine on XP but 75 percent of the time it fails on Windows 7. I have a removable drive so I can switch back and forth between XP and Windows 7. Symptom: Let's say I want to print 10 documents. Each document is 1 1/2 pages long. I command it to print 10, duplex, fast draft, copies. Usually the first document will print double sided. The second document will fail to reverse the paper after printing the first side. The paper will continue forward to the end of the output tray. Since the paper did not reverse and go into the flip over device, I now get and Out of Paper error and must manually hit the OK button on the printer. It then feeds the next (!) sheet of paper from the input tray. So it takes me 10 minutes to print the 10 documents with only 2 or 3 of them actually being double sided. It would normally take less than 2 minutes for 10 duplex sheets at draft quality. When I boot from my XP drive everything works fine. It seems like the motor that reverses the paper never actually goes into reverse. I have removed the flip over device and cleaned everything in sight including the contacts. There are about 30 drivers listed in Properties. The first one says HPD7100T.GPD 6.10.2009 .

    AND forgot to say,
    there is NO OPTION to SET MANAUL DULPEX (in win 7 drivers)
    I also readed your

  • Printing T4 in both sides

    Currently SAP provides the option either to use pre-printed form where terms and conditions are  pre-printed on the backside or to print T4 forms in 2 pages. We want to print the terms and explaination of the boxes in the back side instead of printing in a new page. The program RPCYERK0 is using the following sapscript for this purpose.

  • HP Duplex prints first page non-duplex?

    I have upgraded to Lion and am experiencing problems printing duplex (two-sided) documents on HP printers (tested on the HP Laserjet 4010 and 9050).  The first page will print non-duplex (one-sided) as if it is a separate cover page. The remaining pages will properly print in duplex format.  This problems occurs when printing both in Word (2011) and printing pdfs from preview. 
    I tried going to the HP website to download the drivers directly for Lion, but it said to use system update for the drivers. Doh! Any ideas?  My brain is starting to hurt. 
    1000 thank yous for whomever can resolve this for me!
    Mike

    You should use Software Update to install the specific driver for your printer. You can also download the full set of drivers from http://support.apple.com/kb/DL907. What version of the HP driver are you using? Please post back if the duplex issue remains after updating the drivers.

  • Both Side Prints

    Dear Gurus,
    Right no in SAP we take Purchase order printouts. This prints comes on single page only.
    Can anything be done to print matter on both sides. We have printer capable of double side prints

    Hi
    Have you defined printers in SAP and using them.
    If so you can maintain this setting for the printers created in SAP
    In the Output attributes tab of the Output devices you need to maintain the print mode as duplex: Print on both sides.
    If you are using a default printer, then set the settings in the Local default printer and set the print mode to Default: Printer default setting.
    SPAD is the transaction for doing these changes, usually maintained by BASIS person, you can take help of them
    Thanks & Regards

  • Duplex printing in adobe reader XI

    Ladies and Gentlemen,
    I write because I have a problem with two-sided printing PDF files in Adobe Reader XI.
    Summary of the problem:
         When printing a PDF file that contains two pages I select the option "Print on both sides of the paper" parameters "by Flip on Long Edge" and the orientation of the "Auto. Vertical / horizontal. The result of these operations, when I print. Is that the first page prints correctly. On the back of the cards are printed the information from the second page in the correct format, but with the information from the first in a unique way, namely by me look as if they were printed in a mirror image.
         Prior to printing that is done smoothly, printed data to improve on the first and on the other side. Unfortunately, I am unable to say what was the turning point after which it changed, because I'm not a direct user of this computer. The printer supports duplex printing function, of course. Other programs such as Word office document are printing correctly on both sides as expected.
    The steps that I took to correct the problem:
    1. Restart your computer.
    2. Restart the printer.
    3. Re-install the program Adobre Reader.
    4. The use of different combinations of print settings in Adobe Reader.
    The type of computer:
    -Computer PC.
    -Operating-System: Windows XP SP3.
    -Printer Connected directly to the computer using the USB cable.
    Sincerely

    Thanks for the option.  It did work setting the print as image on.  Does this mean there is something wrong with how the PDF was created or that Adobe Reader is just having a problem reading it?

  • Problem in smartforms - Duplex printing

    Hi,
    I am trying to use a smartform for duplex printing of pages.I have the following pages.
    FIRST and OTHER are pages with the same main window
    I have also created pages BACK and LAST which is used to print on the reverse page.
    Page  ->         Next page   ->   Mode           ->     Printmode
    FIRST  ->      BACK     ->        Initialise counter      ->     D  ( Duplex )
    BACK   ->     OTHER      ->       Increase counter     ->      Blank
    OTHER  ->    BACK     ->      Counter unchanged ->      D
    I have created a command in MAIN window to call the LAST page
    LAST  ->     blank     ->   Counter unchanged         -> blank
    I tried to print a document with 8 pages ( ie., 4 front page and 4 back page ) in a duplex printer.
    Pages 3- 8 are printing fine with print on both sides. But page 1 and page 2 are getting printed in different pages.  Any idea what is the issue with the first 2 pages?
    Thanks and Regards
    Suba

    Hi Suba,
       when ever we want to print back side of a page, we need to assign "D" for the
       page we wanted to print on back side.
       for ex: there r 2 pages, first page and second page .
          1) if we define "D" for first page then it will print second page on back of first
              page.
          2) if we define "D" for both, then second page will start from new page(won't
              print on back side of first), but it can print second page both sides.
       in ur case,u defined FIRST and BACK pages as "D", but OTHER as default.
      so remove Page mode "D" for BACK page.
      hope this solves the problem.
    Thanks
    Dinakar.
