Frontend printing immediatelly

Hi,
I have a problem with my MiniSAP system. I am not able to print immediately on my loacal printer with LOCL and SWIN in SPAD.
The only way to use it: Restart frontend printing in SP01.
Thanks

Hi,
Are you trying to print immediately via Frontend with LOCL from a background job? This is not possible as there is no connection to the Frontend GUI when running a background job.(See SAP note 128105, section 3.c) If you want to use a windows device type like SAPWIn or SWIN from a background job, you need to define an output device with Access Method S with the printer defined in a windows print server running SAPSprint.(see SAP note 894444)

Frontend printing from bypass tray

Dear Experts,
We have the following requirements:
We have a smartform printed from customized program that will print product information (material number, batch number, and description). The requirement from the users is such that the printout should come from the Bypass Tray of the printer - LOCL which is the frontend printer.
So far, what we have tried unsuccesfully so far are:
1. Change the printer's preference (in the Windows setting) such that paper source is from the Bypass Tray.
2. Create a new page format (default printout from Bypass Tray) and use this new page format in the form.
I would greatly apprecieate it if anybody that has had this requirement before, would be willing to share your experience on how to solve this issue.
Thank you and Have a Nice Day.

Something to do with printer driver.

Frontend printing using SAPsprint

Currently we are using frontend printing using SAPlpd. This method is not recommended anymore and we have issues with it. So we would like to use SAPsprint instead.
Here is a typical scenario:
1- Web AS running on a UNIX box in location A
2- SAP GUI on Windows XP in location B
3- Print server running Windows 2003 server in location B
My question is: where should we install SAPsprint? What needs to be changed on Web AS? Do we still need SAPlpd on Windows XP workstations?
Cheers,
Masoud

Hello Masoud,
   Our implementation has SAPSprint running on our CI which then routes the job to our Windows print server that has all the printers defined and shared. We do not have SAPSprint installed on each workstation. SAPLPD will still run via the SAP GUI if the user selects the local print option which means that it will use the devices attached to that workstation directly. The SAPLPD that is used locally is part of our GUI install and is valid to use in conjunction with SAPSprint (for server based printing).
Example Output Device in SAP:
DeviceAttributes Tab
Device Type              ZHPLJ4 ZHPLJ4   : HP Laserjet 4 serie
Spool Server             r3ciserver_P01_00
Server Description
Host                     r3ciserver
Device Class              Standard printer
Access Method Tab
Host Spool Access Method C C: Direct operating system
Host printer
printserver\mis          ***Windows Print Server***
Host Name                r3ciserver                 ***Central Instance***
Hope that helps you some,

How to enable frontend printing using Adobe Print Forms

Otto Gold at the forum "SAP Interactive Forms by Adobe" gave me the tip that Sandra Rossi in this forum might help me out. Here is the link to my original thread How to enable frontend printing using Adobe Print Forms
My question was:
Hi Experts!
Did anyone of you manage to enable frontend printing using Adobe Print Forms? In order to save administration effort we use frontend printing in our ERP system. We just changed some SMARTFORMS to the new Adobe Forms technology. Now we learned that direct frontend printing does not work with these forms.
Any help will be very much appreciated.
Kind Regards,
Gerald

I think you'll be disappointed by a rather negative answer but I'll try to explain everything I know (or think I know) the best I can
The simplest solution is to do a preview, and print from Adobe Reader! (as I could see on one project, users have to display one more dialog than usually to print) It's the best workaround according to me.
How Adobe form printing works:
When you print an Adobe form from SAP, a printer language (PCL, PS, ZPL, PDF) is retrieved from TSP0B table according to the device type, ADS (Adobe Document Services, installed in the SAP java stack) is then contacted to generate the form: a file corresponding to the printer language is generated and sent back to SAP (there are also 2 other little files but it's of none interest here). SAP stores it as a file (named SPOOL...) in the global directory (DIR_GLOBAL when you use AL11 transaction).
When you ask SAP to print it, it sends the file as is to the printer.
Note: when you ask SAP to display the spool, SAP sends a request to ADS which will send back a PDF (binary stream which is not stored on disk, just displayed on frontend).
How frontend printing works:
If you want to print a normal spool via frontend, SAP doesn't know the language of the printer you will choose. SAP sends the spool in a format named SAPWIN to a frontend program named SAPLPD, it converts the SAPWIN format into GDI, a Windows format that is understood by all printer drivers, and it is sent to the printer driver (you have selected) which converts the GDI format into the printer language.
Any workaround?
First possibility would be that ADS converts the PDF into SAPWIN format (by creating an Adobe .XDC file at the ADS side). SAP says it's not possible in Note 685571 - Printing PDF-based forms. As I understand, SAPWIN is a very simple language compared to PCL for example, so it is very difficult to convert a PDF to SAPWIN without losing much information. There's a SAP note about the SAPWIN language if you want to check.
Second possibility is to print directly the PDF through Adobe Reader: you get the PDF from ADS, download it to the frontend (easy), and execute directly Adobe Reader print function. Unfortunately, I don't know if it's possible. Moreover, we should enhance the standard SAP print dialog...
Third possibility is the one I recommended at the beginning of this post

Frontend printing issue

Hi,
In our SRM system there is background job runs ZPRINT_PO which runs successfully but it gives the spool request which shows status "waiting".When i double click on status it shows me Status text "Frontend unavailable".
If I try to re-print this manualy than it shows in completed status.
Can anybody please suggest on this....
Regards,
Manish

Hello Manish,
it seems that you try to print the spool in background and that your printer is a frontend printer with the 'Host spool access method F: printing on Front End Computer' (in transaction SPAD).
This doesn't work as far as I know. You have to provide a printer with an other Host spool access method, e.g. C or S or U).
Printing on a frontend printer means that the SAP System can reach the Frontend (the PC), this is not guaranteed. Perhaps you turn off your PC and then the background job can't reach your frontend.
Hope that helps,
Michael

Frontend Printing Html Browser

Hello, after upgrade to basis 7.0 and switching to the integrated ITS we have problems with frontend printing via html Gui.

It doesnt work with IE an Firefox. Other PDF are shown and printed without problem (e.g. pdf from sapnet) from Browser
Any ideas???

Frontend Printing Using Access Method G - Properties

I am looking for some light on Frontend printing using access method G. I am using ERP 4.7 on Windows 2000 and SQL 2000. We are using access method G to print and when users get the pop up dialog to print, the properties and the cancel options are grayed out. The printers are already define in all of our SAP systems. We are using the latest Kernel 640 and patch level 247 as well as sapgui 7.10 with patch 15.
Thanks for your help in advance

How do I configure a Frontend Printer for User type - Communication "C"

Hi,
Inorder to facilitate the business process in our company we have assigned (using T.code OMJ3) 2 Storage locations to print the material documents to the front end printer whenever a GR or GI/GT is performed.
Recently we implemented a project, to perform a GR (movement type 505) using dotnet application, which connects to SAP R/3 using a Login Id with user type "C" (communication). The material documents cannot be printed as the system is searching for a frontend printer. If we assign a particular Printer we are able to print, but this does not help our business process effectively.
Can we configure to print the material document on the front end printer? Assumed that fronted printer cannot be configured to this user type and we tried to use the T.code OMJ4 to assign the user group, but did not work. The output determination was always pointing to the frontend printer and the spool is in "waiting" status.
Please suggest how can we configure so that at the same storage location, we should be able to use the frontend printer by user type dialog or communication.
Or any alternate way of doing this.
Thanks

Frontend printing method G question.

Hi All,
is it possible to print on frontend workstation using method "G" but bypassing windows printer selection dialog box?
Thanks in advance.
Jacek

Check out SAP Note # 938965. I think it might solve your problem:
Printer checkbox can be deactivated with access method "G" You want to be able to deactivate the printer checkbox with access method "G". For this purpose, you have to select the checkbox for the non-selection of devices on the front end when defining the printer in Transaction SPAD.

Issues with printing purchase order

Dear friends,
I'm having some issues with printing purchase orders.
Normally when I create a purchase order via ME21N and then when I save the purchase order it then gets automatically printed.
Suddenly it is not anymore working. I have created a purchase order this morning and it did not get printed. I get the message "frontend is not available"when i check the spool in SP01
The funny think is if i call up the spool nr via SP01and then do a reprint then i'm able to reprint.
What can be possibly the issue that I can't print the purchase order when I create the purchase order via ME21 when I save the purchase order? Can you help me with any guide on where I need to check why the PO is not printing immediatelly when i create the PO via ME21N?
kind regards,
Camilla

hello all,
thanks so far for your reply.
i have checked today my user settings and that shows that my prints should go to LOCL (local default printer)
The output conditions fpr purchase order have also LOCL (local printer)
The weird thing is that I can print other reports to the default printer without any issues. The issue arise when I create a purchase order via ME21N. Normally when I save the PO it automatically prints. So no manual print instructions are required from my side. Because if I give manual instructions then I'm able to print the purchase order.
Is it possible that the automatic printing is switched off and that it only prints when I hit manually the print button?
Is the automatic printing something that is maintained in SPAD?
kind regards and thanks for your help sofar

Printer setup when SMARTFORM is printing

Hello guys.
I have a problem with smartform printing, when I make it, there is screen with printing input parameters like OutputDevice, Copies, Page selection, Print immediatelly etc. All of this parameters are stored in SSFCOMPOP structure, but there is no information about Frontend printer...
Frontend printer option I can confugure by RSPO_FRONTEND_PRINTERS_FOR_DEV fm, but there is a problem, how can I "send" it to smartform?
Thanks in advance.
Daniel

Any network printer can be defined as a SAPprinter and choose as output device.
And I know examples of output mailed as PDF:s instead of printed.
Sorry, but I don't know any way to choose LOCL printer in SAP as output device and then decide which PC printer I want to use.

Print process deadlock

Hi All,
 
 We are now facing some problems on our smartform printing programs, sometimes some of the smartform programs look getting stuck, from SM50, the processing time is endless, and from the detailed tracing log, there are repeated messages like below for every ONE MINUTE:
 I WARNING: MtxLock 0x70000000636197c rrol0046 owner=33 deadlock ?
 
 I've searched the forum and also did google and SAP notes but can not get useful information match with my error, so could anyone please help to analyse what exact cause of this problem? Any suggestions is highly appreciated.
 
 The smartform program itself is simple and correct, just has one header and several items and uses normal SSF_FUNCTION_MODULE_NAME and CALL FNAME to do the print work, in most of time it works correct, but sometimes it just has problem and then the deadlock error occurred. I guess maybe it's because user tried to print too fast than the capability of the printer and then user canceled the job, then in some situations, the upcoming printing jobs get blocked and then get stuck, but it's just a guess, i've no proof to identify it.
 
 Here I attached the full trace log, hope someone could give me a idea, thank you very much!

Hi Sitarama,
 
 Thanks very much for your fast reply. Yes, the smartforms are custom-built. Besides the deadlock error, there still has some errors in SP01 says "Could not pass request to host spool system". But it previews wonderfully in SP01. The detailed SP01 error log is like below:
Print request processing log

What do you mean parallel processing on table level? The smartforms extract data from different SAP tables and then transfer to smartform interface, then they can added in form pages. Do you think this results parallel processing towards tables?
 
Thank you and hope to hear more from you.

Hi,
Make sure that you have printer has been installed properly on your linux desktop.
On SAP, using SPAD tcode, you can set output device using access method G : Frontend printing with control technologie. This is easiest way.
You can also use access method S or U for better printing method. Please refer to my blog posting here (http://sapbasis.wordpress.com/2007/08/23/print-sap-documents-using-linux/)
