NW2004s Trial only Printer is LPT1:

Hello,
I have installed the actual NW2004s on a Win2000-System.
OK, this Win-Version is not supported, but it runs properly and newer Versions would have the same Problem.
The problem is, that the only available Printer is LPT1:
I have an Epson-Printer(Stylus Photo 830U) connected via USB.
I have no physical parallel printer-port.
Any ideas, how to redirect the NW2004s-print-output to an USB-Printer or an PDF-File ?
Thanks
Armin

Hello Oliver,
the USB-printer is running now :-).
For anybody who is interested, here are the steps:
- Start the SAP printer daemon
In Windows-menue: Start->Programs->SAP Front End->SAP printer daemon
Or the exe-file: <Drive>:<path>\GUI\SAPgui\SAPlpd\SAPlpd.exe
- Start transaction SPAD (Spool Administration)
- In the card "Devices/Servers" find the field "OutputDevices"
- Write the name of a new printer (for example: "MyPrinter") in the field "outputdevices"
- Click the "Display"-Buttom at the right side of the field.
The list of Output Devices appears, yet, there is "no entry defined".
- In the main Menue choose the entry: "Output Device"->"create".
Now you are in the Window Create Output Device, and the name of your new printer is already filled.
- In DeviceAttributes/DeviceType choose: HKSAPWIN:MS Windows driver via SAPLPD.
- In DeviceAttributes/SpoolServer choose: <YourServer>
- In AccessMethod/HostSpoolAccessMethod choose: S: Print Using SAP Protokoll
- In AccessMethod/Host printer write (exactly): __DEFAULT
- In AccessMethod/Destination host write the <name of your server>.
The servername must be the same name listed in the saplpd-window after Hostname:
- Save your new printer.
- Apply with "yes", that a shortname is automatically created.
The printer should be ready now, but in the User maintanance(SU01), the default for "Output Immedately"
is not activated. You have to change this setting for every user who wants to print, otherwise, your prints will remain in the spool-queue.
Hope this helps
Armin

  • How to Install 64-bit "Generic / Text Only" print driver on a 32-bit Windows 2003 Server?

    Hi All,
    In a nutshell, I need to Install the 64-bit Generic / Text Only print driver on a 32-bit Windows 2003 Server’s “Generic / Text Only 32-bit print queue.
    The problem is that there is no Driver-Disk to get the drivers. I’ve been able to isolate 14 files related to the 64 bit drivers from a Windows 7 x64 computer and copy them to a temp folder on the Windows 2003 x32 server. When I try to add the 64 bit driver
    to the Windows 2003 x32 server,  it wants a *.inf file, which I don’t have and can’t find.
    Because Microsoft will no longer support Windows XP, my client is replacing all of their Point-of-Sale Windows XP x32 systems with Windows 7 x64. They use Terminal Services (Remote Desktop) to connect to a Windows 2003 x32 server to use the POS system. The
    POS software redirects LPT1 back to the local Generic / Text Only printer. This works great for XP x32.
    When we use the Terminal Services POS software on the new Windows 7 x64 system, none of the labels print out because it’s redirected in 32-bit back to the local Windows 7 x64 Generic / Text Only 64-bit printer.
    This will be a huge issue for me if I can’t get this to work.
    Thanks in advance for any suggestions and help! -Rob

  • Since updating to the new version the work web page that i use will only print 2 pages even if there are more. I can not get it to print all the pages in the document.

    for instance....I have a documents that has 6 pages, I can scroll down and see all the pages but when i hit the print button it will only print 2 pages. I tried to change it in the setting part but there is no feature that allows you to change it.

    For many years, Firefox has problems printing when some style rules are used. However, I am not aware of any changes for the worse in Fx4 (at least, until now I wasn't aware of any).
    A couple of thoughts:
    (1) Is it possible you were using an add-on in Fx3.6 that fixed this problem, but the add-on was disabled during the upgrade because it wasn't compatible? (Sometimes that can be fixed with a little hack.)
    (2) Are there any obvious settings differences that could be affecting printing, such as fonts, margins, or shrink-to-fit/percentage?
    (3) Does the workaround of selecting the entire page (Ctrl+a) and then choosing Selection under Print range in the Print dialog work? Unfortunately, this can slice through lines and images, but it often works around problems with style rules.
    In the interest of saving paper, it often is useful to experiment with a PDF printer driver. If you don't have pdfFactory, you can install a trial version for testing: it lets you view the results without first having to save the file. (If you save with the trial version, there is a footer to that effect.)
    (4) Is it an HTML5 problem? You can toggle the HTML5 parser off, but this is a global setting, not site-specific. If you are familiar with about:config, filter on html5 and double click '''html5.parser.enable''' to toggle its value from true to false. This helps for some sites, but has no effect on others.

  • Can't print to LPT1 from a command prompt - WIN XP

    I have an HP Deskjet 722C hooked straight up to the computer via a standard parallel printer cable (DB25 to Centronics) to the machine's parallel port. OS is XP Pro on a single user system with no network involved. For example, I load a file in DOS EDIT, go to File, Print, Print to LPT1, and it acts as if it printed but the printer doesn't respond. I can however print straight from any windows app with no problem. No other printer is directed to the LPT port(s). Tried the NET USE command (which I am quite familiar with) to redirect LPT1 to itself, no use. Deleted and let Win XP re-install the printer's driver, no use. Went into the machine's BIOS and tried every combination of EPP, ECP, etc., to no avail. The only logged in user to this machine has administrator rights. 
    What am I missing? 
    Thanks !!!!!!!!!! 

    Can you print from XP? If not maybe the wrong driver is associated with the printer. There may information in this document which could help:

  • Print to lpt1 where remote desktop client has usb printer

    I have a client with an usb printer and need to print an UPS label report from Microsoft Dynamic NAV on an remote server that prints only to LPT1. I've set the client printer as shared printer and selected LPT1 and USB ports.  When the client is connected
    to the server through remote desktop, the redirected printer can print a test print but running the report from the application on the server will not print  to the client's printer.  The report shows that it was sent to LPT1 but there are no errors
    or print jobs in the printer queue.  I've also tried to use "net use" to set up the shared printer to LPT1 but that didn't work either.  And I've installed the printer on the server to LPT1 as well and that did not work either. 
    Any help is greatly appreciated.  The server is Windows Server 2008 R2 and the client is Windows 7.
    Thanks,

  • How do I print just 1 web page in FF 29 ? With 29 you can only change the first field ( 1 of 5, 2 of 5, 3 of 5, etc. ) That means I can only print all 5 pages,

    So I cant seem to print just the 1st of 5 pages. The default setting , 1 of 5, will print all 5 pages. The 2nd field can not be altered, as it could in previous FF versions, to 1 of 1. Therefore, I can only print all 5 pages, 2 through 5, 3 through 5, etc. WTF - I keep wasting print paper. I got the print edit add-on but that doesn't seem to help. I have been through several FF versions and do not like the format of 29.

    Actually, with the [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/print-edit/ Print Edit addon], if I click the down arrow I get the old print format options and can do it.

  • Can only print one item at a time

    Hey everyone,
    Bit of a Photoshop novice here, use it for DVD covers and labels. I have been using CS3 previously but upgraded to CS5.5 last year. The thing is on CS5.5 I can only print one page at a time even when I input say 20 copies to be printed, only one will print. That goes for the regular printer for printing covers and the disc printer.
    I can open CS3 up and right away it will print however many I ask it to.
    Is there something I am missing? Something so painfully obvious that it is staring me in the face but I am just not seeing it?
    Thanks in advance!

    It isn't a printer setting. I have 3 different printers connected to my system and all of them worked with CS3 fine. And when I delete the preferences folder for CS5.1 it works as it should but only once, then afterwards it only prints one copy, no matter how many I ask it to print!
    So if it works when the preferences have been removed, then fails to work afterwards, how can that be a printer setting?
    I have read elsewhere that others have had similar issues with CS5 and Windows 7.

  • HT3669 I have an HP deskjet color printer that only prints in black and white from my mac ... how do I get it to print in color

    I have an HP deskjet color printer that only prints in black and white from my mac ... how do I get it to print in color

    Check the printer itself.  Some printers you need to set the color & B&W settings on the printer itself instead of the Mac.   If that is not the case w/your printer, contact HP tech support and/or post in their forums if they have one. 

  • How can I get my printer to print in color? I can only print black and white

    HP Officejet 6500 E710n-z-------windowsxp      My printer will not print anything in color.   How can Iget my printer to print in color?  I can only print in black and white.    It is a new Printer and we just installed it 2 wks ago.

    I am not sure I understand ''it still will not print. ''
    If you cannot see any content on pages you printed or in print preview, the cause might be margins which are set too high.
    #In order to check the margins, we need to go to ''File'' > ''Page Setup''.
    #Once this is done, switch to the ''Margins & Header/Footer'' tab.
    #Check what's set there under ''Margins''.
    The following are the default values for ''Margins'':
    '''Right''': 12.7
    '''Top''': 12.7
    '''Left''': 12.7
    '''Bottom''': 12.7
    Check these values accordingly and change them if necessary.

  • How do I set up my printer to only print in black?

    how do I set up my printer to only print in black?

    Please read this post then provide some details.  What printer model? What operating system?   Depending on your printer model you might remove the color cartridge, forcing black only printing, or select "Print in Grayscale" and "Black ink only" in the driver. 
    Some printer models (whether from HP or other manufacturers) may not allow printing in black if the color inks are empty.  There are also some other constraints, black only printing is generally not available when printing on photo papers and may not be available when printing with an automatic two-sided duplexer.

  • I am trying to print all the PDF pages in a range of 5 pages but can only print one page at a time . . . It will print the current page, but not all or pages 1-5.  Can this be overcome?

    I am trying to print all the PDF pages in a range of 5 pages but can only print one page at a time . . . It will print the current page only, but not all or pages 1-5.  I need to go to the next subsequent page and command to print current page; continuing with this procedure until all pages are printed one at a time. Can this be overcome?

    You can use printPages(1, 5), however I need to know how you print current page.

  • Printing to printer on windows xp computer, only prints first page

    hey all,
    I need some help. i just switched to a mac and I am loving it, but in my small office, I am having trouble printing. Two printers are connected to a Windows XP computer. I can connect to them via the network and print, but it only prints the first page...Any ideas on how to fix this problem?

    Hello Cate_B and welcome to Apple Discussions.
    The CIFS host error message is often a result of the Mac not being able to resolve the Windows computer name. This would be confirmed by the fact that when you selected Add Printer > Windows, your mums computer did not appear after selecting the workgroup. A solution could be to check what workgroup name is set in her Windows and ensure your Mac is set to the same workgroup name (set via the WINS section of the Advanced network settings.
    For an easier fix you could try the SAMBA method again, but this time I suggest you try the following syntax.
    smb://IP Address of Mums Computer/Sharename
    Some other things to check...
    1. Make sure the printer is shared by mums computer and ensure a guest can access it.
    2. Ensure the share name is short (about 8 characters) and contains no spaces.
    3. Check that your Epson driver will work when shared by a PC. Some Mac printer drivers will only work when connected directly to the Mac via USB (this is the case with a number of Canon drivers). In this case, you need to use an alternate driver based on CUPS, such as the Gutenprint driver set. These will work across a network and a cross-platform share.
    Hope this helps you...

  • Brother 2240 only printing the very beginning of any document, help!!!

    I have a Brother 2240 monochrome laser printer 3days new after my 2140 gave up the ghost. I use a wireless home network and the 2240 is connected over USB to an Airport Express. Consistently I have tried to print documents, pdfs, jpgs, pngs etc and the 2240 only prints an inch worth of the top of the page and pauses. I have the current 10.6 drivers and the printer has its latest firmware. Multiple computers on my network have had the same issue. If I clear the print queue and turn the 2240 off and on the same document will properly print. I'm at a loss on how to troubleshoot this one. Any help would be appreciated.

    Same problem here. I got the 2240 too, with the latest firmware and driver (using CUPS). When USB is connected straight to the printer, it works flawlessly, but the trouble comes around when its networked through the Airport. I find that it prints the first page fine and about the first couple centimeters of the second page before it pauses the print que. Only occurres on complex print jobs (lots of graphics or even some word docs with tables and clip art). So far I've had problems printing multiple page docs from Safari, Word, & Pages.
