Number of copies problem

Hi,
I've had this issue for some time now. I use two printers: Samsung ML-1210 and Epson Stylus Color 880. Regardless of which printer I select in the Print Dialog and Number of copies selected, I get one copy. Oddly enough, if the printing is scripted in FM Pro (for example) for multiple copies, I get multiple copies. I've re-installed printer drivers to no avail. Ideas?

well this is possible, if the driver program is coded accordingly.
SAP standard driver programs normally offer that functionality. Often you can find following line of coding in those programs:
Do nast-anzal times.
  "print form
enddo.

  • Printing number of copies problem

    Hello,
    I have a problem printing a smartform. In the printing dialog If I choose for example 3 copies, it only prints 1. No matter what I choose it always prints one copy only. I would like to print the 5 copys in the same spool order. For example If I saves the file in pdf format, I would like to have only one pdf file with 5 copies in the same file.
    Is this possible?
    The client says it's an error...
    Best regards,

  • ABAP Forms - Number of Copies

    Hello,
    I am having problems with a form that I created in SAP.  The form is for a barcode label.  The only contents of the form is a text include and a call to an external report that pulls in data.  When I call the form from a program that I wrote it always prints two copies.  However when the form is called via MIGO, it only prints one copy.  Does anyone know what could cause this?  I have looked at the number of copies field in the itcpo that I pass the OPEN_FORM function routine.  Any help would be appreciated

    Hi Ryan,
            Since you are getting two copies of same output, right. I suggest you to run the program in debug mode to see what actually happens during run time. Check simultaneously the way the program runs and the status of the list where the contents gets printed. You may come up with a solution. For debugging check this thread...

                    System.out.println(e);
        }

    Same problem here. I have found hundreds of questions in several places, but no answer.
    Problem is that when I set the copies, PrintServiceLookup.lookupPrintServices returns no results.
    Please help.

  • Number of copies with setCollated does not work if PageRange is not set

    I have a report which results are printed on 2 pages. If i set PrintReportOptions like below:
    PrintReportOptions printOptions = new PrintReportOptions();
    printOptions.setPrinterName( targetPrinter );
    printOptions.setNumberOfCopies( 2 );
    printOptions.setCollated( true );
    printCntrl.printReport( printOptions );
    I get ONLY one copy, other pages are not printed.  So instead of getting 2 x 2 pages with order 1,2 1,2 i am getting only 1,2 so it seems that number of copies is not interpreted.
    When i  add a setup of a page range - everything works as excepted.
    PrintReportOptions printOptions = new PrintReportOptions();
    printOptions.setPrinterName( targetPrinter );
    printOptions.setNumberOfCopies( 2 );
    printOptions.setCollated( true );
    PrintReportOptions.PageRange printPageRange = new PrintReportOptions.PageRange( 1,  2 );
    printOptions.addPrinterPageRange( printPageRange );
    printCntrl.printReport( printOptions );
    But how can i find on how many pages report will be printed? - it's impossible. I thought that maybe i can set 100 as the upper limit of range but this doesn't work. The page range must be less or equal to the number of pages on which report will be printed.
    When I am not using method setCollated or use it with false  report is printed on desired number of pages and with expected amount of copies.  ( in order 1,1 2,2 ) . Here is the code:
    PrintReportOptions printOptions = new PrintReportOptions();
    printOptions.setPrinterName( targetPrinter );
    printOptions.setNumberOfCopies( 2 );
    printOptions.setCollated( false );
    printCntrl.printReport( printOptions );
    I suspect that this is a bug of CR Java runtime. If so, when we may expect that it will be fixed?

    Hello.
    I tested with the latest version of the Crystal Report runtime libraries (version 12.2.211) and it works for me as expected.
    What I would suggest is that you test your application using the latest version 12.2.211 and see if this resolves the problem.  Since it works for me on this latest version, I would expect that it would work for you as well.  The latest version can be found at the following link under the section "Runtime Libraries":
    http://www.businessobjects.com/campaigns/forms/downloads/crystal/eclipse/datasave.asp
    A direct link to the zip file that contains the runtime components can be obtained from the following link:
    http://downloads.businessobjects.com/akdlm/crystalreportsforeclipse/2_0/crjava-runtime_12.2.211.zip
    If you are still experiencing problems after using the 12.2.211 runtime components, then maybe it is the case that your printer driver is causing an issue.  The printer that I printed on is "HP Universal Printing PCL 5 (v5.1)".
    I hope that updating the Crystal Reports runtime version to the latest resolves your problem.
    Best of luck.
    Regards.

  • Printer changes number of copies

    hp officejet J4680 - printer wants to change the number of copies I request - I only want one and it changes that instruction to 6 or 8 or 7 - whatever it feels like - anyone had this problem?

    Typically, for the number of Copies, you can set it to what you want as default by going to Copy>Settings>Set and New defaults.
    If you want to reset this setting, you can go to Setup>Tools>Restore Factory Defaults.
    Hope this helps.

  • Number of copies by default in a printer?

    Hi everybody.
    I've a simple problem, but I don't know how to solve it.
    If I go to TC SP01 with a specific user and I see the details of a spool request (double click on it), if I go to output attributes, at No. Of Copies I see a 2, and all documents printed with this printer has it... I want to fix it to 1 by default for all documents, but I can't find where...
    Thanks in advance,
    Oscar

    Hi Oscar,
    I don't know of any way to default the number of copies at a printer level.  It is posible for the user to set it as a default, but it's quite complex so they must REALLY have been tinkering to set this.
    Here goes,
    As the logged on user print something (anything)
    In the print pop-up choose Properties
    In the next pop-up choose Specification
    In the field name drop-down choose 'Number of copies'
    Under this the default value will be shown.
    If this is set to 2 you can change it back to 1.
    Feels like a long-shot, but worth checking.
    Regards,
    Nick

  • Printed double number of copies (Invoice printing)

    Hi,
    While giving print for invoice from vf03 its printing double number of copies i.e. if i configure 3 copies in
    communication methods then it is printing 6 or 5 or 7 copies.
    Please need information where could be the problem.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Amit

    Hi Amit,
      The extra copies your getting are they blank?
    If you have used page-break option make sure there are no blank lines before it.
    Coz it will result in a blank page.
    Hope it helps!
    Much Regards,

  • Unable to print number of copies on label printer

    Hi Everyone,
    I am able to print smartform any number of copies on standard printer.
    But when I change from standard printer name to Label printer name and execute the smartform with number of copies ( greater than 1 ).
    For label printer I am able to print only one copy, irrespective of number of copies specified. However I can able to number of copies specified for standard printer.
    Can anyone help me what could be the reason? Is that any settings should be done for label printer ?
    Thanks.

  • Is there a limit to the number of copies you can make at one time.

    I was in the process of making 20 copies of my video, I manage to get 8 copies when my computer said it had to turn off due to an error.  Now I am unable to make copies because that same message keeps appearing.

    What version of Premiere Elements are you using and on what computer operating system is it running?
    What are you making copies of..... burn to DVD, Blu-ray, or AVCHD and presumed in the Premiere Elements 11 Publish+Share/Disc/ with number of copies indicated in the burn dialog?
    In the past, making disc copies by that process was a hit or miss proposition. If I were you I would consider making exact copies using the software that came with your Blu-ray DVD burner. or DVD/CD burner.
    Is your computer optimized?

    Bill...  do not misunderstand my words as your views are not my intentions.  Take into account, there is a difference between asking the OP, "Have you checked the Print Drivers", and or, "If so, what did you learn?"; rather than telling the OP what the issue is before all facts are gathered, then becoming defensive or insulted.
    Example:
    I am cooking.  I taste the food and say, "Something doesn't taste right.  You say, "You didn't add salt".  I respond, "I did, it's not salt, it must be something else".  Instead of asking first if I added salt, or offering another suggestion, you are insulted and or become defensive.  Case in point.
    I hope this cleared up your unjustified comment.
    Back on subject:
    I posted the screen-shot on the fly and first time using this forum and its UI.  When it is clicked on, it expands (as you saw).  After it expands.  Change the "Zoom Level" on your screen to find the correct resolution.  Hint - It tells no more than the words in my original post.
    Thanks for your help.  I'm going to sleep before the sun comes up.  Have a happy Sunday.

  • MIRO document Number range buffering problem

    Dear all,
    My MIRO document number is not following the sequence. if my first 5 numbers come in a sequence, then the next 5 numbers are not coming in between. Instead, the next 5 numbers are coming. It might be due to number range buffering problem. How to find the number range object  for  MIRO document number range?
    How to solve this?
    Please suggest.
    I will award full points.
    Thanks & Regards,
    AR

    Hii,
    You can search the Number Range object in T-Code: SNRO
    The Number Range object for Invoice document is RE_BELEG
    Go the Change Mode of the Number Range Object in SNRO, remove the No of Numbers of Buffers (by default it will be 10).
    This will resolve your issue.

  • GR slip - Number of copies to vary based on Country key

    Hi,
    We are a multinational company and we have a requirement related to GR slips. The number of copies of GR slip printed should vary based on the country key, where the user is printing the GR slip....for e.g. if it is US then it should be 3 copies, Germany should be 5 and so on.
    So the same form has to be printed, only the number of copies varies....based on the country where it is printed.
    How to accomplish this. We are using Inventory Management Output determination, with Output type WE03. Please help.
    Thanks !

    Hi,
    See if country key can be added to the condition table and insert it in the access sequence.  Define exclusion check box by maintaining this access as the first in your access sequence.  When you maintain condition record for country as one of the parameters, make your number of copied in its communication data as you wish.  It should print based on country key, the number of copies...
    Regards

  • Setting the number of copies to be printed through crystal reports?

    I posted this in another section and got redirected to this one. 
    So I'm working with some software that utilizes Crystal Reports 10, and am looking for a method where through Crystal Reports I can take a user entered parameter value and set that as the number of copies for the printer to print. This isn't an option in Crystal Reports itself, so I understand I may need to dig a little deeper and write some customization to accomplish this.
    I've been building Crystal Reports for about two years now, all self taught, but have never had to go this far, where/how would I start on this? And I tried searching for a similar question in these forums to see if it's come up before but couldn't find anything. I'm kind of stuck at the moment because I can't alter the software that's using Crystal Reports to set number of copies, so I want to see if I can do anything in Crystal.

    Really, this is actually more of a report design question, though I understand why they's ask you to post here also.
    Anyhow, I think what you are asking is; can I design a report such that it will internally hold how many copies it should print(?).
    Answer to that is no.
    Only way to do multiple copies would be to modify the app you are working with. E.g.; go to the authors of the app and ask them for an enhancement to their product so that you can print multiple copies.
