Print Parameter setting changes

Dear all,
Where do we change the global paramater settings - Time of printing - General propertes - from Send to SAP Spooler Only for Now to Print Immediately !!!
User default setting already set to print immediately.
Regards,
Sam.

Hi Cheriyan,
I don't know if there is a global switch, but every user can customize his own default.
Use "System -> User data -> Own data" tab Defaults box "Output Immediately".
This default is used for new spool requests or for the spool values in batch jobs.
Regards
Holger

PO with release stratergy - change the print parameter setting

Hi all,
In case of PO with release startetgy, when the PO is released by the last approver and after saving, the print should automatically come in the place of the creator.
for ex: PO creator is A. His default printer is A1
PO approver B. His default printer is B1.
once B approves the PO, the print should come in A1.
Kindly help me in fixing the issue.

Hi,
Thanks for your input. A little change in the logic.
Our PO will have two output type.
A - PO creator - print parameter p1
B - PO approver - print parameter p2
CASE 1:
if output type1 is choosed, when B approves printout should come from p2.
Case 2:
if output type 2 is choosed, when B approves printout should come from p1.
Note: No work flow is involved and print program cannot be changed. Can use user exit.

Print Parameter Setting

Hi,
Iam trying to print an ALV report. Each time when i go into the report in print section i change the ALV selections parameter under cover sheet to "NO" and copy the settings. But when i logout of the client or close the report it is set to YES again. Can anyone please tell me from where it is defaulting the value to yes and how to configure it permanently. I even tried in SPAD i don;t see any way to configure ALV selection parameter.
Thanks
Krithika

Hi,
Pls check for this field if there is any Parameter Id set. If yes, then in the program set the parameter id for that and chage the value.

ID CS2 -- SNAFU colors print way off after PDF prints, color setting changes

I have messed things up on my InDesign pretty good. Working on ID 4.0.5 in CS2, with a corrupt Help file, on OS 10.4.11.
It started on a particular document after printing to PDF, something got tweaked and the colors went almost inverted (gray is pink or purple, green is red). Reading in the posts about RGB, CMYK, and color picker, I feel like that might have something to do with it but I don't know what happened. I did use the color picker (perhaps incorrectly) to match to my friend's PMS picks, but it didn't seem to just be that because it did print fine at one time. I THINK it was after the PDF. But now at least another important document is messed up, although not completely -- one small picture prints perfectly, but the main large image is off -- pink where it should be gray.
Fixes i tried that didn't work:
Went to Adobe Bridge and synched color
"Emulate Adobe InDesign CS2 CMS Off"
Monitor Color
any ideas?

I agree with Mylenium on this one. Check your application color settings and synch them. I briefly visited some tech info on that photo copier. Neither printer is Postscript compatable. Paper profiles are usually chosen in the Print dialog, not in the application. Read the User's Guides to those machines. Submit questions on output to them. Check adobe.com for color management white papers.

Printing in Photoshop and Pages sets "change" bit in document

Is there any way to defeat the "change bit" being set in documents after printing? Even if I don't make any changes, EACH time I print (even the same print params), the change bit gets set in Photoshop CS3 and Apple Pages, and then I have to save the document again, or close the window and decline to save changes. VERY obnoxious. PRINTING does NOT change documents!
These apps Do NOT set the change bit on printing:
Eudora
AppleWorks
GraphicConverter
TextWrangler
MS Excel 11.1
MS Word 11.1
TextEdit
Xbench
Photoshop CS3 and (Apple) Pages DO exhibit this obnoxious behaviour after EVERY print, even if there are no changes or other actions (except Save) between printings. Every print causes the document to be changed for some reason. These are the ONLY apps which behave this way...
(These are all the apps that I ever print from...)

If the idea is to remember the printing setup in the doc itself, okay, maybe. But they should CHECK to see if the print setup is the same as before and NOT set the Change Bit.
They should also give you the option NOT to save the print setup in the doc itself.
Personally, I think all that should be done in Page Setup, the way it's been for more than 20 years. That is an explicit command to tell the doc what its print params should be. That's where this belongs, NOT in the Print command.
99.99% of people only have one printer, so Page Setup should do it all.

Office Jet 4580 prints in reverse order, setting changes won't hold

I have a HP Office Jet 4580 and it keeps printing the last page first and works backwards. I only do one sided pages for printing, no double sided pages.
I have changed the settings as follows:
Printing Preferences
Document Options-Advanced printing features- Enabled changed to Disabled
Layout Options-Page order-Back to front changed to Front to back
I click on "Apply" and/or "OK" for each change.
I have tried the above in every combination possible (i.e. changed to Disabled, but leave Back to front, change to Front to back and leave it Enabled, etc.). Not only does this not change anything, but all settings revert back all by themselves. Once, I saw the Disabled change back to Enabled on its own as I clicked on the "OK" button. Sometimes the "Apply" button is greyed out as well. I make the changes from the Devices and Printers window. I then do the same to double check from a website window by going to File-Print-Preferences to make sure, but it changes back all by itself.
How do I make the changes permanent? I still cannot print page one first on multi-page print requests. The only time I was able to disable the Advanced printing features, it did not print at all. What is wrong with this software??

Why is my HP LaserJet 1300n printer automatically set to "Paused"?

A couple of days ago I updated my Macbook from 10.6.6 to 10.6.8 OS.
I don't know if this caused the problem, but I just can't print anything, with no application at all.
The printer gets set to "Paused" and I just cannot change its status unless I delete the printing job, but as soon as I send any other document to the printer (via Airport Extreme) it sets again to "Paused" and nothing seems to help.
I've tried deleting the printer configuration, reinstalled driver, even tried setting the printer's IP manually but nothing seems to work.
—Andy.

Hey iteachosk!
On a different discussion someone suggested connecting thru USB directly. It worked!
I had to restart the printer identification, throwing away previous driver once both the printer and Macbook were connected via USB wire, thus the new driver was not the wireless kind.
This is not as comfortable as having a wireless connection, but it's ok while we find another solution.

Printing Orientation Setting from Properties... Button on Print Dialog

I am trying to add printing to a graphics application I have developed, and have noticed that if I use the standard code to open the Print dialog:
    PrinterJob printJob = PrinterJob.getPrinterJob();
    printJob.setPrintable(new PagePrinter(0));
    if (printJob.printDialog()) {
        try {
            printJob.print();
        } catch (Exception ex) {
            ex.printStackTrace();
    }the Print dialog appears, and if I click the "Properties..." button for the selected printer (I am testing with an HP 1210), the printer-specific properties dialog allows me to select portrait or landscape orientation, but if I change this setting, click OK, then click Print in the Print Dialog, the change to the orientation setting seems to be ignored,. For example, if Ithe default orientation is Portrait, but I use this setting to change the orientation to Landscape, the PageFormat information passed to my Printable still is based on Portrait orientation.
The fact that this setting appears to be ignored would be very confusing to a user of my program. Is there a solution to this problem?
I have the same problem if I use the Book class, in that I have to indicate the page format I want to use for each page when I call "append" on my Book instance, and when the Print dialog is subsequently opened, if I click "Properties..." and change the orientation, this change is ignored.
It there any recommended way to handle this?

I have the same problem too. Anyone got a solution?

Incorrect Print Parameter

Dear all,
I get the following error msg Incorrect Print Parameter when executing an ABAP Program Variant in a process chain. Why is it doing a print and what does this msg means? any insight?
ohya, the abap program DOES NOT call a printer function... its a Z*

1. You can try reinstalling Printer drivers.
2. Reconfigure printer on client machine
remove printer -> add printer -> local
3. Check the RDS server, Whether Printer redirection is enabled or not,
host machine: Computer configuration -> windows components -> remote desktop services -> remote desktop session host -> printer redirection
set "use remote desktop easy print printer driver first" to disabled
Restart client machine

I am trying to print redplum coupons and I can't, help. I have updated java, adobe flash, and made sure my printer was set on default. I am not sure what I am doing wrong. I have contacted redplum and no one will help.

I am trying to print redplum coupons and I can't, help. I have updated java, adobe flash, and made sure my printer was set on default. I am not sure what I am doing wrong. I have contacted redplum and no one will help.

No Apple response??? Redplum/Valassis will not help either. I searched, using the cups error message and though it is Unbuntu, same error so maybe useful...only problem: details would not display unless I join Unbuntu forum. What a pain to do anything with my Mac or find any help. I honestly regret buying this buggy OS.
Anyway, here is what I found, FYI:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=483415
As the old saying goes: when in doubt, consult the manual. The problem appears to be that I added the printer using the KDE Add Printer Wizard. It was automatically given a "socket" URI instead of an "lpd" one. When I:
- altered the printer settings at http://localhost:631 (the CUPS admin page) as instructed in the manual for the printer, and
- copied the PPD file into a second place on the hard drive (as instructed on ubunutuforums, see the link above)
..everything started working.
It's still slower than windows, but I can live with that
Probably a simple fix. Change the socket I.P. to match the printer I.P. like this:
socket://192.168.1.86:9100. The thing I'm concerned with using socket:// is that AFAIK the printer I.P. must not change. In my case I'm able to assign a static I.P. address to the printer but it's something to consider.
I found that the only thing I needed to do was change socket to lpd (and remove :9100 off the end as well). See Solving Ubuntu printer broken pipe problem (DocuPrint C525A) . BTW thanks for steering me in the right direction - very grateful.
Solving Ubuntu printer “broken pipe” problem (DocuPrint C525A)
Posted on November 25, 2008
Are you having a problem with your printer under the latest versions of Ubuntu (perhaps it worked under an older version)? Are you able to print short documents, but not longer, or more graphics-intensive, documents? (e.g. the unfortunate people at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=625493). Do they sit there as Processing for ages and then switch to Held? If you have the same problem I had the solution I tried may work for you too. Firstly, check your cups error log:
sudo gedit /var/log/cups/error_log
If you see anything like the following, the solution may be simple:
[Job 201] Unable to write print data: Broken pipe
PID 13359 (/usr/lib/cups/backend/socket) stopped with status 1!
System > Administration > Printing and right click on your printer, selecting Properties. Settings > Device URI
If you see something like socket://your_printer_ip_address:9100 just change socket to lpd and remove the :9100 off the end. Then click on apply.
Apparently lpd is a more modern protocol which works with most printers whereas socket is more raw (and potentially faster but riskier in a network situation). Somewhere along the line, the default Ubuntu/Gnome setup for networked printers shifted from lpd to socket. Some primitive printers will have benefited whereas a larger number of more modern printers will have suffered.
Please correct me if I am wrong (which is highly possible) but the underlying problem could be that socket may make the printer wait a long time for a large file to be processed ready for printing. Some printers, such as the Fuji Xerox DocuPrint C525A, may drop the socket if things take too long to start coming through.
Changing timeout settings might work but lpd is better than socket so it is the preferred solution in any case.
If this works for you, please leave a comment to let others know (ideally with a description of the printer and Ubuntu version). Printer may be relevant if it doesn’t support the direct stream protocol properly. NB I may take a while to let your comment through because of the volume of spam. Sorry about that.
Finally, thanks to sphilli8 for the steer in the right direction at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=6245626.

PRPPRO printer parameter usage

I'm hoping I have the right thread for this, as this is an output determination issue. For delivery based outputs, you're supposed to be able to define a printer parameter profile using transaction PRPPRO, then use parameter id in the user profile , setting PPT = printer profile name.
I've done this, but it's not working and I can't find any documentation clarifying what the setting should be on the printer tab in v/34 (I assume it should be blank or user, as user parameters looks at the user profile, but only at the default printer). Nor can I validate the effects a condition record has on the setting. Before debugging, does anyone have experience in this?

Which Funtion module can get print parameter in the background?

Hi all,
I know the FM"GET_PRINT_PARAMETERS"can get the print parameter, but I find it can't get the print parameter in background. Does anybody know Which Funtion module can get print parameter in the background?
Thanks in advance!
Nina

Hi Nina,
This is text copied from SAP HELP.
FU GET_PRINT_PARAMETERS
Text
    Read, determine, change spool print parameters and archive parameters
Functionality
    The function module GET_PRINT_PARAMETERS is used to define, modify and
    display the print and archive parameters. Using this function module is
    the only correct way to modify a print or archive parameter record. The
    print parameters are closely related and contain a check total. This
    check total becomes invalid if any of the print parameters are changed
    and causes a runtime error when the print parameters are used later.
    The module recognizes the following modes (values of parameter MODE):
    'PARAM'              Normal case. Define the print parameters for the
                         current program. The values that are not defined
                         are specified from the user master record or are
                         assigned default values. The print parameter screen
                         displays the PRINT key. This mode is used
                         if the MODE parameter is not specified.
    'PARAMSEL'           Like PARAMS, except that the print parameter screen
                         includes an option to activate the selection
    screen.
    'BATCH'              Define the print parameters for a background job.
                         In this mode, the name of the report to be started
                         is passed with the REPORT parameter.The REPORT
                         statement of the specified report is checked for
                         LINE-SIZE and LINE-COUNT definitions. These
                         definitions are passed as default specifications.
                         Furthermore, the SAVE key is offered
                         instead of the PRINT key in this mode.
Check the BATCH MODE.

Printer properties keeps changing 'Mirror Image' option to ON

I have Word 2003 SP3.
My multifunction printer is HP Officejet Pro L7700.
In printer properties - under the 'advanced' tab, I have 'Mirror Image' set
to OFF.
However, if I make a change under the 'features' tab in pinter properties,
the 'Mirror Image' will change to ON, without me wanting it to.
How can I keep this from happening?
Thank you,
Jamie
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Well, I tried this. As soon as i went into printing shortcuts and changed something, the Mirror Print went back to ON again.
Anyone else? Somehow, I believe this started happening when MS Service Pack 3 was installed.
