PCUI: is print functionality achievable directly as in SAP gui?

Hello All,
As happens in SAP GUI, we can directly print a document,
without taking its preview.
As per my understanding, in PCUI (BSP application), we always provide PRINT button which always create a preview and then we print it from the preview.
Is this functionality achievable in PCUI?
Please get back with your answers.
Many thanks in advance.
Regards,
Lata Bhandari

Hello Lata,
first: Welcome to SDN.
Please keep in mind that PC-UI is a Web Application. You have to live with the preview PDF because you normally never know if your system could reach the printer of the user. Through the web you could not use the local printers.

How to achieve print functionality in OA Framework page

Hi All,

There is one print button on page for printing the page
How to achieve print functionality thruoug Print button in OA page.
Please help me in this if some one has use thif functionality before or if someone knows about it.
Thanks
Nisha

Hi Nisha,
Have u checked out "printable page" in OA Developer guide??
Step 1: Add a page-level button as described in the Buttons (Action/Navigation) document.
Step 2: Assuming your button label is the standard "Printable Page," apply the OA Framework attribute set /oracle/apps/fnd/attributesets/Buttons/PrintablePage.
Step 3: Set the button's Destination URI property to point to the current page and set the UIX facet parameter (OARF) to printable as shown in the following example (if you don't know what a "facet" is, please see Controlling UIX Rendering Output for additional information). Remember to retain your application module.
OA.jsp?page=<CURRENT_PAGE>&retainAM=Y&OARF=printable
Step 4: Set the button's Target Frame property to _blank. This ensures that the printable page opens in a new window.

Orarrp can't print pdf file directly to printer

oracle remote print utility (orarrp) can't print pdf file directly to printer.
we expect orarrp utility can handle ".rrpa" file (i.e. pdf file generated on the application server) by directly print the file to the client's printer, i.e. invoke the acrobat reader on the client side, display the the printer selection dialogue, after confirmation print the pdf file, then the acrobat reader close automatically nicely.
However we are disappointed as the acrobat reader startup and display the pdf file content but does not print and does not close.
After testing the problem several times, there are some findings:-
Finding (A):-
(a) for the success of direct printing of pdf file, a physical path must be provided; we have tried 2 methods:
1) using drag & drop to copy the pdf file directly to the browser
2) open pdf file in the browser directly using browser menu-->File-->Open.
(b) for the failure of direct printing, a virtual path is involved and we have also tried 2 methods:
1) when web.show_document() is used
2) enter the url to the URL bar of the browser,
eg. http://appsvr.com:7777/report/test_printout/APPSVR1094707.rrpa (this is a virtual path/url)
Finding (B):-
(a)when the physical path is used, a temporary pdf file is generated in the same directory where the rrpa file exists in the application server,
e.g. in application server: d:/printout/yyy.pdf is generated for d:/printout/xxx.rrpa when direct print occurs
(b) however when the virtual path is used, there is no such temp "pdf" file generated and direct print failed.
May be when virtual path is used, orarrp utility don't know where to generate the temp "pdf" so direct print doesn't occur.
So, anyone has similar experience or further queries or has solutions, please join.
Thanks for your attention.

Print PDF file directly to store printer

Hi Gurus,
Having not found a solution, we think we need help from you. We have searched forums and google but have not found adequate solutions.
We are a retailer having different stores. Our main office is using SAP. Each store has its printer and defined in our SAP system. We want to print PDF files directly to store printer using SAP . How should we do that ? We think there are 2 steps:
1) Upload PDF files from network directory into SAP (We done it, no problem)
2) Having now PDF files in internal tables, how should we proceed to print PDF files using store printers?
 Please note that we do not want to use CL_GUI_PDFVIEWER since we do not want to display the PDF and having the obligation to choose the print option from dialog and also we do not want to call Adobe OLE object to print
Any answer would be appreciated
Thank you very much

Print BW report directly

Hi Experts,
we want to print a Report directly after clicking on print version. We don't want to first open the pdf file and then click another time on print. Is there any solution?
The best solution would be, that we print automatically the report on our local printer after confirming the filter variables.
Thanks for your help
Sebastian

There should be a javascript command, something like window.print, which you could put in the onLoad function of the page.
The problem here is that it doesn't print in the nice PDF version.
Cheers,
Andrew

Printing PDF report directly to printer, not using orarrp utility

The orarrp utility works only with Windows machines and it
requires installation on both the client machines and servers to
support. We need a more general solution.
Adobe has a java application/applet/javabean (and support
classes) to view PDF, and it is easy to write a java driver
which can be used in place of the orarrp utility. However,
Adobe's Java Viewer is extremely slow, does not produce quality
output, and is explicitly not supported by Adobe.
My question then relates to Reports. When the Report server
returns a PDF in the Previewer, I'm expecting the JINITIATOR,
used by Forms, is also used to support the Report frame and
functionality, including eventual printing. If this is the case,
is there not a set of classes, downloaded with Jinitiator, which
support the fonts, and printing of PDF to locally attached
printers?
And if so, shouldn't we, in Java, be able to make use of these
classes and their APIs to print PDF files directly to locally
attached printers without the need for Previewing first?

within a forms trigger:
1. generate the report
2. copy from iAS to local
like: webutil_file_transfer.url_to_client()
3. print.exe /d:printer filename (for windows OS)

Problem with Print functionality in the BI reports integrated into portal

Hi,

Please help me in resolving this issue and points will be rewarded for sure

Hi Edward,
Can you clarify on your statement "You can run 3.x queries normally". I am currently declaring the bex web application string in the BW iview created in this format "infocube=0D_FI_C01&query=0D_FI_C01_Q001" and i am not defining the report template anywhere in the iview properties but still the standard template is displayed.
Pls let me know how to run 3.x queries normally.
Also i am trying to integrate only reports which are developed for BW 3.x format in BI system but still the data is not displayed.
Pls let me know incase the SP level of both EP and BI portal are to be considered for this.
EP 7 portal is on SP9 where as BI 7 is on sp12.
Also i noticed the EP portal doesn't have BI Java Addon. will this matter for displaying reports in BW 3.x format.
As you suggested workaround i tried to create a url iviews directly taking the links from the reports displayed in BI portal , i was able to preview the report but when i added those iview reports to role, the reports are constantly loading as it is trying to contact BI system. There are being loaded constantly with nothing displayed on screen.

PDF (print function)

Hi all
I have a question from client
"There seems to be confusion around the PDF function within SAP Business One.
According to legal requirements, when using the PDF icon to u201Cprintu201D an invoice, it is necessary to have the invoice status change to Open u2013 Printed, so as to ensure that next time the invoice will display that it is a Copy of the Tax Invoice. SAP Business One obviously u201Cseesu201D the PDF command as an export function and not a printing function, therefore the status remains open. "
Can anyone clarify this?
Thank you
Jerusha

Hi,
If you print directly from SAP clicking on Print button or Prom PLD print preview, only then SAP changes status of Invoice to be printed.
If you export invoice to PDF and then prints the invoice from PDF - SAP will not change the status of invoice as you are printing from PDF which is correct as printing is done from PDF/
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
Neetu

The only working print-related function in BioBench1.2 on my PC is the "Print Report", all the other "Print" functions gave me "Error, the printer is not set up correctly".

I used to print all my BioBench data by first exporting them to Excel and then print from there. Recently I need to print some of the screen shots and some data directly from array analysis, but when I click on the "print" buttons, the "Error, the printer is not set up correctly" message occurs. The only thing I can print from BB without this error is the report printing function. I have a postcript printer and I have set the postscript option to be "true"... Thanks !

This problem is a result of a limitation in Windows 9x regarding the size of an image that you can send to the printer. The problem does not occur on Windows 2000/NT. This problem appeared with the increased color options of LabVIEW 6.0 on which the BB1.2 is based.Although it is not immediately obvious, your video driver and settings play a role in printing.
1. Try adjusting the color palette your driver uses (i.e., 256 color, high olor, true color). The error may occur only in one of these modes. Also, change the resolution (number of pixels) to represent the Screen Area; e.g., change from a 1024 x 768 display to an 800 x 600 pixel display.
2.Certain video drivers also support "acceleration" modes. Using a non-accelerated mode often eliminates the error. For
Windows 95/98, right-click on your My Computer icon and select "Properties" from the pop-up
menu. On the Performance tab, click the Graphics button and change the Hardware Acceleration (e.g., if it is set to "Full", lower the setting a notch or two); for Windows 2000/NT, right-click on your Desktop and select "Properties" from the pop-up menu. On the Settings tab, click the Advanced button and go to
Troubleshooting.
3.In Windows, the standard VGA driver provided by the operating system is very stable. Try using this driver in place of the specific one written for your video hardware. If the error is eliminated, there is likely a problem with your vendor-provided video driver.
4.These errors are most often fixed with the latest
video/printer driver. Be sure to contact your hardware manufacturer and install the latest driver. An easy way to determine if your error is "driver-related" is to move your code to another machine (and hopefully a different set of drivers) and see if th
e error persists. If the problem is printer related, try another printer.
5.Make sure there are at least 100M avalible space in your C: drive. If not, set the virtual memory to the other drive which has larger available space.

How to realize print function in JSP

How to realize print function in JSP? I know use Javascript:window.print() can print,but it will print whole page,it don't fit me;Another method is to write JSP into Excel and then print it in Excel,but it don't fit me too,because it don't print directly. Anybody know how to print it directly?

Many websites offer a "printer friendly" version of a certain page. That IMO is the only way to solve your problem, next to using CSS to use a different style for printer output. Here is a tutorial that covers this:
