Page printing issue with smartform PO

Hi Super-Techies,
I have created a z print program for my purchase order smartform. But the issue I am facing now is that when i try to view the purchase order from transaction me23n -> print preview ( with 15 items). I am getting output as a single page with 10 items on it. The rest 5 items are not being displayed. I mean the page is not getting printed from 2nd page onwards.
What could be the issue??? Can anyone suggest me.
Thanks & Regards,
Vinit

Hi,
As said above, I have used table instead of template and the data is flowinf to next pages.
BUt now the issue is that in the last page suppose if there are only 5 items, than the window border prints after 5 items. It is not good while print preview as there is a blank space created in form (for the rest 5 items which are not being used).
I want to fix the main window border irrespective of the line items.
Whats advice on this issue.
Regards,
Vinit

Auto adjustment of page orientation causes printing issues with documents that have a page width greater than its page height.

Hi,
Since an upgrade from Word 2003 to Word 2010, we are experiencing printing issues with certain
documents that have a page width greater than its page height.
In Word 2003, it was no problem to set the page width greater than the page height while setting the page orientation to "portrait".
In Word 2010, this seems impossible: despite leaving the page orientation to "portrait", if one changes the page width/height as stated,
Word 2010 automatically adjusts the orientation to "landscape". Resetting the orientation to "portrait" will flip the page's width/heigth settings.
This behaviour causes printing problems: the page prints out 90° rotated.
I do not believe this is a printer driver issue: I tried several different printer drivers, and all give the same (bad) result. Setting the printer driver's page orientation settings (before printing) makes no difference, as
Word 2010 seems to force the page orientation settings.
Inserting the documents 90° rotated is not an option, since it causes problems with the printing margins.
This is very annoying, since we have to print official documents of a municipality (driver's licences).
Is there a workaround for this issue?

Strange Printing Issue With New HP & Pages

Hello!
I have a very strange printing issue with a new HP printer. I have written pages documents heavy in Texts which are located within tables. The documents print fine on a Cannon and Epson printer and look great but when I print the document on my new HP Laserjet Pro 400 Colour M451nw some of the text on some rows come out of the printer looking like they are bold / slightly fuzzy. This only happens with some of the rows of text, not all of them. The font is the same in every row with the same format.
You can see this in the attached image. The first line (Thanks very much) has printed correctly but the subsequent lines look bold / slightly fuzzy.
After a lot of testing the only way I can resolve this is if I copy the content into a new pages document and only then it will print and look ok with the HP printer.
This must be a problem within my origional document. I would simply copy and paste everything into a new document however this would take a very, very long time (over 5 years of work producing teaching materials and over 100 documents and thousands of tables and formatting that cannot be copied and pasted).
Also, on other printers you can see the lines seperating each row of the table. These lines are not visible on the HP print outs, even when the table is copied into a new document.
Has anyone come accross an issue like this before? Is there a way I can fix this without creating a new document? Do I need to get a new another new printer (the 4th printer this week!)?
Any advise, wise words would be greatly apprechiated!
Thanks!

Sorry, Fruhulda. After 4 hours on the phone with Apple care they are taking this issue further themselves. It seems to be a problem with our pages document and the compatibility with certain drivers. We have still not gotton to the bottom of it and Apple are going to get back to me when they have an answer.
We also worked out that the issue only happens when you print via Ethrenet & USB. Printing via Wifi is ok and there are no quality issues.
Very Strange!

Our software vendor tells to use FF 3.5.1. because of some printer issues with their web based program. How safe is it to work with FF 3.5.1 in 2012?

Separator page prints out with wrong name when printing from Outlook 2010

Working with Windows 7 Enterprise, Outlook 2010. We've set up our desk printers to print a separator page with the user's name, as several people use the same printers in our building. Printing from IE, Word, etc. all work fine, and it'll print
out the correct username on the separator page.
When anyone attempts to print an Outlook email, it instead prints out my username. We've found that it doesn't happen if they click on the "quick print" button, but it happens every time if they do "file > Print" or Ctrl+P.

Hi
As per the information and details provided by you that separator page prints out with wrong name when printing from Outlook 2010, please follow these steps: -
To create a custom separator page file, use a text editor such as
Notepad. On the very first line, type one single character, and then press
Enter. The character on this line defines the character used as an escape character. For example, the following list assumes that this character is the at sign (@).
Enter the escape codes for the functions you want, and then save the file with an .sep extension in the Windows System32 subfolder.
In the Print Manager, select the printer that you want to use the separator page file with, and then click
Choose Properties on the Printer menu.
Click
Details, specify the name of the desired separator page file in the
Separator File box, and then click OK.
Note:
Put the custom separator page file in one of the following locations:
In the %Windir%System32 folder.
In a folder whose path contains a SepFiles folder. For example:
Drive:\Folder\SepFiles\Subfolder
I hope this information will be helpful for you.
Thanks and regards

Integration of Print Workbench with Smartforms

But these don't provide a detailed step by step procedure on the same.If any body has such documentation Please provide the same.

Bogdan,
I don't think that statement is true as we have developed SMART Forms for PM in 4.6C itself.
In the transaction OID1, all you have to do is to specify the SMART Form name and the print program name. I guess if you are developing a SMART Form, you will have a custom print program.
So, you need to specify the FORM sub routine in the OID1 which will be dynamically called by the standard code and from there your custom program calls the smart form and prints the relevant info.

Ravi

Printing issues with 11.0.05 - can't go past 4 pages

Adobe recently updated and ever since none of our printers will print past 4 pages of a PDF. We have 11.0.05 and HP Officejet 8600 printers. It happens on all PDFs and all printers. They hit page 4 and the next sound is an ugly noise, and then the rest clears out of the print queue. Help?

Sorry! to elaborate, some users cannot print pdfs. The job is sent to the device but it does not appear on the print servers and nothing prints off the end device (Konica). No error messages are displayed. it looks like it is sent successfully to the printer but does not appear.
If you send an office document or a web page for example it prints out as normal.
Other users can print pdf's to the same device. We have around 30 to 40 users that cannot print pdfs with 11.0.09 and about 1000 that can.
We have not found a fix other than to remove it. All Windows 7 pc's use the same printer drivers

Hi All,
I created a smartform in SAP to print out label on zebra QL420Plus.

Printing Issues with HP OfficeJet 100 and Windows 8.1

We use HP OfficeJet 100 mobile printers and have a printing issue.When we print the printer acts as if it is going to print and then prints one blank page.Printer will not print even though it is showing as default printer.Printer will just stop printing in the middle of a document, even in the middle of printing out a page. We are printing via the USB cableWe are using Windows 8.1We are connecting to laptopsWe have been using the HP mobile range of printers since 2004 and have only experienced these issues since we moved the laptops onto Windows 8/8.1 We have:Uninstalled and reinstalled the printer drivers – this fixed this issue for a short while and then it reappeared againCalled HP support and they directed us to the driver support page which had the latest print drivers, uninstalled and reinstalled drivers with them on the phone. This initially fixed the problem and then it returned a few days laterAfter trawling the support forums found directions to change the print processor to “WinPrint” – No effect as the processor was already on this settingDownloaded the HP diagnostic tool – HP Print and Scan Doctor – didn’t fix anything Any further help would be much appreciated.

Hello there Lawrence, Welcome to the Forums! I hope you enjoy your experience
I noticed your post about the troubles you are running into when you attempt to install your OJ 6100 printer on your Windows 8.1 laptop. I read all of your attempts and seen you have tried several methods to try and get the installation to complete successfully.
I would like to make some suggestions that may help. Let me know how it goes!
1. Check that Internet Explorer pop-up blockers are turned off before downloading the installer
Internet Explorer Pop-up Blocker: How do I turn off Pop-up Blocker?
Try to install
2. If you're running McAfee Live Safe or any other firewall, please temporarily disable the "real time scanning".
How to disable realtime scans
Try the install
3. Go to the start screen (you may also press the windows key + R to open the run box) and type %WINDIR% this should show the windows folder.
Click on the folder and scroll until you see files. Look for a filed named "HPWINS*.DAT" (the * is for a number that varies) remove this file and try the installation.
Try the install
Enjoy your Monday!

Printing issue with DeskJet 6940

About every 20 pages or so, printing in portrait mode, the printer does a form feed after printing about 1 1/2" of text. It happens intermittently, and there is no apparent logic or pattern.
I have reinstalled the driver, changed the USB cord, but to no avail. My LaserJet CP3505 on the same computer does not exhibit this issue.
Using Windows XP with SP 3, Dell Dimension 3150 with 3.25 GB ram. It also happened with earlier XP versions, so its not an operating system upgrade problem.
It happens with B/W or color printing, always using 8 1/2 x 11 paper from the upper tray. It does not appear to happen when printing in two-sided mode.
I don't know what to try next! Does anyone have an idea?

I have an older HP non-wi-fi printer connected to my Apple Airport Express wireless router which includes a USB port. This makes the printer available with my wireless network which I've used for printing wirelessly with my former Apple PowerBook and now with my MacBook Pro for years. I'm now able to print from my iPhone and iPad as well.
You need to have the printer connected to a wireless router for your wi-fi network, or purchase a printer that is wi-fi capable and if you do that you might as well purchase an AirPrint compatible printer which doesn't require a wi-fi printing app purchased from the app store.

Printing Issues with HP PSC 750 on Dell Inspiron 3647 using Windows 8.1

Recently purchased a Dell Inspiron 3647 desktop which has Windows 8.1 unable to get my HP PSC 750 to print correctly.
I have downloaded all applicable Win 8.0 drivers and even tried using the HP print & Scan Doctor application. I get partial test pages printed, but the emails, documents, etc. are not complete.
I had one error pop up stating that the USB 2.0 may not work with the 3.0 on the computer, but never how to 'work around that issue'.
I tried calling HP support and they wanted to 'remote' into my computer as that was the only way they said the issue could be fixed...never done that before and was not comfortable with it...
Any other ideas - before I go out and buy a brand new printer (this one by the way still works great!)
Thanks in advance!

Hi there and welcome to the forums
I saw your post about trying to install and use your PSC 750 on your new Windows 8.1 system. After checking the drivers out for this printer, I have discovered that there is no driver available for Windows 8.1. Perhaps try running the HP Print and Scan Doctor to see if that will help with printing. If not, I would then suggest looking into an upgraded printer which will have more up to date software and would most likely function with 8.1.

Printing issue with Electronic Signatures

In the footer of my document, i place document properties and also use the captioning feature for tables and figures. I have saved it in native 2010 format not in a compatability mode.
When I print my document (paper or PDF) these fields print properly.
After I electronically sign the document and look at the document on the screen, the fields and caption numbers (Table 1-1: Intended Audience) appear correctly. When I print to PDF or paper, the numbers disappear (Table 1-: Intended Audience) and they
also disappear from the screen.
When I close the document and reopen it, the fields are correct. It only changes after the document prints.
Using Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2010 Version 14.0.6023.1000 (32-bit).
(--merging--)
The original document was a 2007 document opened/stored in the 2010 format.
Reproduced with new 2010 document simply by creating two properties:
Template Version - Test - Value 1.0
Template Date - Date - Value 1/25/2012
And doing the following:
Using the default Normal template with calibri as the font
Added a heading level 1 to the document
Added a 2x2 table with Insert Caption including the chapter number based on heading 1 below the table
Added the template version and template date as two lines on the page
Inserted a signature line
Created a footer with the template version, page number aligned center (via tab), template date alighted right (via tab)
Printed without signing and all data was present (Table 0-1: Test)
Signed the document and printed. The following was missing:
The template date in the footer.
The table label was Table 0-: Test
The template date was present in the middle of the document

Hi,
Is this problem only affect Word program with Electronic Signatures?
Please try to test Printing with different printer drivers.
If the Word printing problem occurs only when you print documents with a certain font or a certain type of graphics image, try to print to another printer.
If no other printer is available, contact the manufacturer to find out whether there is an updated version of the driver or a different driver that works with your printer model.

Duplex printing issues with landscape orientation

I have read through all of the previous questions, and can't seem to resolve my problem here.
I am using Acrobat 8 Professional (8.2.2). I have created a PDF from a Powerpoint presentation. I need to be able to send this to someone else and have them view it on screen with the correct orientation, and also duplex print it correctly, as all of our company printers default to duplex printing (to save paper). However, since the person who prints it is going to staple it in the upper left hand corner, it really needs to be duplexed to open along the left edge (the short edge of the paper).
When I first bring up the print screen the document has the incorrect orientation; i.e. it shows a thumbnail of an 8.5 x 11" page in portrait orientation, and my content is reduced in size to fit the 8.5 width. I think this is really the issue at hand--for some reason, even though the page is set up in Powerpoint as a 8.5x11 landscape oriented document, when it exports to the PDF format, that orientation doesn't hold.
Anyway, it seems that no matter what settings I try to adjust, it doesn't seem to work. I have toggled "Auto-Rotate and Center," I have toggled the duplex settings in the PDF document properties. I have toggled the duplex print settings on my printer driver between "Open to Left" and "Open to Top." None of it seems to make any difference in the final printout--basically what comes out of my printer is a document that is rotated to print out as if it was a portrait page, and is bound on the left edge (so each second page is printed upside down, when I am looking at it in landscape orientation).
The only work-arounds I can think of would be to rotate every other page in the PDF so that when it printed it printed correctly. However, then the PDF would not be readable on the screen. I could generate two separate versions of the PDF, one marked for print, and the other for viewing--but that is a real waste.
Does anyone have any suggestions here? I am looking for a way either to get the PDF software to "understand" that this document is a landscape document from the get-go (then it SHOULD work to duplex print correctly with the "Open to Left" setting), or maybe create a custom print setting for this document that allows me to rotate every other page as it is printed, but that doesn't rotate the pages on the screen.
I hope this is all clear...and that someone can offer some advice.
Thanks!
Melise
P.S. Just in case it makes any difference, I am running Windows XP Professional and am using the Microsoft Office 2007 software package. Because the company has multiple different printers throughout the company, I need a solution that will work without regards to the specific printer driver.

I am having the exact same issue. The setting of "Auto-Rotate and Center" has no affect.
Do I have to rotate the odd pages 180 so they are upside down in the PDF, but print correctly?
I am using Acrobat 9 Pro V. 9.3.3 in Win 7 Pro 64, to HP CP6015XH (colour laser).

Smart form printing issue with LOCL printer and SAP printer

Hi,
The issues are as follows:
1. the top portion of the Invoice and PO does not print when using the SAP printer (works when using LOCL)
2. the shaded areas of the Order Confirmation and Invoice are black when printing to a SAP printer (works when using LOCL)
In an attempt to correct the printing issue is was suggested that we change the SAP printer device type from HPLJ4 to POST2. This did address the problem where the shaded areas were black but then we received reports that other reports printed "garbage". Its possible that using POST2 device type causes issues when printing to HP compatible printers.
Apparently all the testing was done using the SAP printer LOCL and not the SAP printer name and SAP spool system. LOCL uses the SAP GUI and Windows system to produce the output. Our production users at the plant site and Toledo are using SAP defined printers with the device type of HPLJ4. HPLJ4 is our standard here as OC for our printer definitions and we have HP compatible printers installed in our Toledo location and all of our remote sites. We need to be able to correctly print the Invoices, Purchase Orders, Sales Order Confirmations on our SAP printers.
What can be done to the reports to allow them to print on our HPLJ4?
Thanks,
Babu

Hi Prathap,
Check the background shading of the windows of the Smartform where you get the black boxes. If it is set something like this:
Color: White
Saturation: 100%
this can be the problem.
I know it is strange but some black and white printers cannot handle this setting. They only know one color black so the ignore the color setting and just take the saturation 100% setting.
The reason it works with local and device type SAPWIN is that the print data is created in Windows and sent to the printer as graphic.
Please change the shading for window MAIN -> tab 'Output Options' to:
Color: Black
Saturation: 0%
and this should resolve the problem.
Then create a new spool and check if the problem is resolved. See SAP Note #400050.
Regards,
Prabhu
