Printing directly on SAP-printer or via preview on windows printer

Hi all,
I'm having a serious print problem: The result of printing directly on a SAP printer or printing via preview on a windows printer is a wide difference!
In the beginning I was working only with the preview of the LiveCycle Designer to check the design of my forms. Later on I was checking them in preview mode in SAP-transactions or saved them onto my local disk. Printing was no problem because I printed the created forms on a window printer.
One day there was a big surprise when printing a form directly from SAP on a local SAP-printer (HP printer). The output looked a bit different. Somehow the form was like streched. The left and right margins were not on the sheet anymore. Even the lowest part of the footer was not visilble anymore. It looked like the layout was centerd and aligned on top of the page.
The SAP printer is installed with a PCL driver (standard for HP). Even adjustments relative to the SAP-hint 1444342
(device independent printing) were regarded.
My question now is: how to install SAP-printers that the print output is the same no matter what print method is chosen?
I appreciate any help, hints and good advices which leads to a solution of my problem.
Thanks & regards,
Phil
PS: I'm creating a Form with LiveCycle Designer 9.0.1 (SAP GUI 720, Patch-level 4).

Hi Prathamesh,
Follow this approach.
Get NAST entry corresponding to invoice number(invoice number = objky).
insert this piece of code :
     gwa_nast-vstat = 1.
     gwa_nast-erdat = sy-datum.
     gwa_nast-eruhr = sy-uzeit.
     gwa_nast-usnam = sy-uname.
     gwa_nast-manue = 'X'.
     gwa_nast-vstat = 0.
     gwa_nast-LDEST = P_printername_from_selection_screen.
     CLEAR gwa_nast-datvr.
     CLEAR gwa_nast-uhrvr.
     CLEAR gwa_nast-cmfpnr.
   MOVE gwa_nast TO nast.
   PERFORM einzelnachricht_dialog IN PROGRAM rsnast00 USING sy-subrc.
   IF sy-subrc NE 0.
     PERFORM objekt_entsperren IN PROGRAM rsnast00.
     IF sy-subrc EQ 9.
       RAISE print_error_dial.
     ELSE.
       RAISE print_error.
     ENDIF.
   ENDIF.
   SET SCREEN 0.
   PERFORM objekt_entsperren IN PROGRAM rsnast00.
   COMMIT WORK AND WAIT.
the above will generate a spool.
Thanks,
Anil

How can I print directly from my iPad to my new Primax 3260 printer when I have no computer. Do I need a portable single unit Router?

How can I print directly from my iPad to my new Primax 3260 printer when I have no computer? Do I need a portable one to one Router for the wiFi connection. My Internet is through Telstra 3G system.

Is your printer a wifi printer or hard wired only? If it's a wifi printer then you might want to look into third party apps like Print n Share or Print Central which allow a version of air printing to non-air print printers.
You may also want to look on the manufacturer's site. Maybe they have a fix for you.
If your printer isn't wifi, then you will need a router to get it on a wifi network to print to it. As far as I know, there is no support for the iPad to do wired printing.

Is there a printer I can buy to print directly from Iphone 4S (perhaps via bluetooth) WITHOUT wifi or computer?

My parents purchased an iphone 4s and would like to know if there is a printer that they could buy which would allow them to print WITHOUT having a computer OR a wifi wireless network. I've researched bluetooth enabled printers but it is not clear if they'll work based on what I've read without a computer and network.

Any printer that supports AirPrint can print documents or photos directly without any need for a PC or MAC. I work for a printer company and strong suggest all my customers to buy Brother or Epson printers. Anything Brother or Epson with a (W) and the end of the model number will support AirPrint.

When downloading a pdf, the print command show a document in the preview but only prints blank pages

When downloading a pdf and using the print command, it shows the correct document in the preview but only prints blank pages. If I use the save command and try to open with Acrobat 11.0.07, it says it wasn't correctly decoded and can't open it. If I do the same thing on my old Macbook (10.6.8) all works fine from the same website with the same document. Any ideas?

This article maybe help to you, change pdf file type to other application like adobe reader, See:

Printing via Bonjour to Windows printer

Can I use Bonjour to print from a Mac to a shared printer that is USB connected to a Windows Vista PC? If so could someone kindly point me in the right direction as to how to do it please.
I set up a Bonjour printer on the Windows PC and printer properties tell me this printer isn't suitable for sharing. This seems a rather bad start! Next when I try and add this printer to the Mac there is no Bonjour option in Snow Leopard's System Preferences > Print & Fax > Add Printer.
Any advice will be gratefully received. Thank you very much.

Hi Irbrenda I remember you from http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=10331377#10331377 not a million years ago!
The Printfab driver works a treat for me - it's just I don't want to buy it. I am presently using a trial version which expires in 30 days after which I either cough up 49 Euros or it will deface all my print outs with "pay up you measly creature you know it's worth every penny." Actually I'm not sure what 49 Euros comes to in £'s (or even US$'s for that matter) but it's more than I want to spend on a printer that I thought would seamlessly network out of the box.
The man on the phone at Canon said they "don't support cross platform drivers, particularly for a model that has no pretence of network capability, try Bonjour mate". However I'm beginning to think Bonjour is not going to crack it as I think it works for Windows printing to Mac printers and not the other way round. This new post was to see if anyone would correct or confirm this.
So my choices would seem to be:
Transport print jobs from Mac to Windows on a memory stick or network them across and then print them with Windows - an inelegant solution to engage in personal perambulation of this sort in the 21st century.
Give Printfab 49 Euros - painful to contemplate, I'm a frugal kind of guy.
Maybe try a USB print server from eBay - ditto the frugal guy story.
Slash my wrists - nah, life is sweet really. Yes Irbrenda, don't forget that, life is sweet, don't self harm re this or even trash your machinery.
Unless, of course someone out there has another idea maybe involving Bonjour.

SAP Script: Include text in MAIN window prints outside MAIN window margins

Hi,
We're facing a peculiar issue. We call a text element in the MAIN window of an SAP Script form using FM WRITE_FORM.
The element has 2 includes.
The problem is that when the content of any of the 2 includes is large enough, the include text prints overflows outside the MAIN window margins on the first page and into the area of the footer window of the same page. It does not automatically flow to the next page MAIN window.
We have checked that the MAIN window and FOOTER window margins do not overlap. Infact they are quite far from each other.
We have tried stuff like using a forced PROTECT, change the para format etc, but nothing solves the problem.
Does anyone have any idea?

You do not need to use the subroutine READ_ORDER_TEXT to get another text name because you already have it: TMP_TXNAM2 .
Pass this value back to your SAPscript, and it is okay.
Or you can even check the text object is empty or not, if no text is found, print 2 empty lines:
still use your subroutine to read the text, if no line is found, set TMP_TXNAM2 to empty, otherwise, no change,
In SAPscript, check the value is empty or not, then print 2 empty line or the text object...

Printing from iPad2 (iOS5.1.1) via printserver on HP printer?

Hi,
with my MacBook Pro I can print wireless on my HP Businessjet 1200 printer without any problems.
The printer is connected to a printserver and this part by wire with the WLAN router.
Back to my iPad: Before iOS5 I used Airprint to print from my iPad -- no problems.
But now, nothing goes on.
So please does anybody know how to print from the iPad with iOS5.1.1?
(I don't want t make a jailbrake).

It'a a Longshine printserver.
It's a problem of iOS5 because Airprint doesn't work
any more.

Email an invoice directly from SAP CRM 7 via ERMS

Hi there,
Is there a way to email a customer invoice from SAP CRM7 using SAP ERMS?
With SAP CRM4, we are able to open up the invoice and click on the email icon. This will launch a new email from outlook with the bill attached.
I'm looking for a more integrated way to email an invoice using ERMS within SAP.
Thanks,
Catherine

Hi Catherine,
What if you use the action profile for sending the email?.
Thanks,

I have a new printer which behaves OK except it will not print directly from a web site accessed via Firefox. We do not have this problem if accessed via another browser. Suggestions?

New printer is Brother MFCJ615W. OS is XP. Computer is quite old Dell. Printer also refuses to print pictures from .jpg files - but the fact that I can print direct from web sites accessed via another browser suggests some of the problem is with Firefox. I asked this a few days ago and got an email reply giving me a link to click on - but this only produced an error message.

I think I solved the wifi connection problem, just by switching off completely the router! sounds trivial, but in this case it worked!!!
the funny behaviour of the trackpad/cursor still persists. any suggestion???
thanks again

Preview/Image Capture/Printer Utility cannot recognize Canon scanner

Hey forum,
I have a Canon MP500 all-in-one. It communicates well enough with my 2006 Macbook to print, but upon attempting to scan via Preview>Import from Scanner, Image Capture, or Printer Utility, it doesn't even recognize that the scanner even exists.
I have...
1) Restarted both the Canon and the Macbook
2) Installed the latest drivers from the Canon website
3) Deleted and re-added the printer via System Preferences
Does anyone have any other suggestions??

Do you have the MP500 connected to the USB port of an Airport device, such as an Express? If yes, then this is a known limitation of the Airport devices, in that they only support printing - not scanning.
If the MP500 is connected directly to the Mac via USB, then the scanner should be listed with the printer. If you open Print & Fax and select the MP500 in the list, the right pane should show two buttons for the device - Print and Scan, as shown towards the bottom of [this|http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3771] article. If you only see Print then ensure you have downloaded this version of the [scanner driver for the MP500|http://support-au.canon.com.au/contents/AU/EN/0900217401.html] from Canon.

Sending Userid when printing job from SAP

Is there a way to send a userid when printing from SAP? In order to control printing costs we are requiring user codes to be input to the printer before a job will print. The windows operating system is capable of sending the codes needed to the printer., Can the SAP application send a user codes ?

I don't think so directly unless you use LOCL and capture the Windows user ID, though I'm no printer expert. You may need to generate reports in SAP but then you're never guaranteed that the spool that was released to Windows was actually output. We have Equitrac boxes on all of our shared corporate printers. When the print comes out directly from SAP, the only identification as to where the print came from, other than the name of the Windows print queue, is the generic underlying SAP system user (not the SAP user ID). We can't track the cost unless the user actually logs into the box to use the printer/copier.
For our high volume color and black/white printers in our data center, we chargeback the print costs based on the Windows queue that the print came from. As you probably know, you can have many SAP print queues/devices that point to the same physical printer. We name all of our queues such that the using company/department/application is easily identified and our operators track the costs in that manner.

I can using AirPrint from safari and email to my hp printer but do not get print as an option from the pulldown menu from the new york times and other apps. How can I print directly from these apps?

I can't seem to print directly from apps like the new York times. Print is not an option from the pulldown menu. Print to my hp printer works fine from safari and email though and from some other apps. Do some apps not permit printing? That doesn't right.

Thats funny. If go to ny times on safari therebis a print icon and no problem printing. On the app -- and I am a paid subscriber -- no print option ...
You can ask the NY Times why not.
Standard behavior is that Airprint always works with iBooks, Mail, Photos, and Safari. Apps are up to their author.

Printing directly on dvd

I'm using HP All-In-One C309a printer running Wndows 64 bit. I'm trying to print directly on DVD with Cyberlink LabelMaker app. It prints but quite significantly off center. Is there a template or work-around for this printer. Thank you.

I have actually found CD-LabelPrint to be quite a simple and versatile piece of software considering it comes standard with Canon products and most importantly it is the only way to print to CD's on the printer.
What exactly don't you like about it ?

Why will my HP6510 not print to photo tray when I print directly from my computer?

Why will my HP6510 not print to photo tray when I print directly from my computer?
I am able to print to the photo tray when I print from a memory card, inserted directly into the printer. However, when I try to print a picture saved directly to my laptop through my wireless connection, the picture prints from the main tray. If I take the paper out of the main tray, I get the out of paper message. When I first bought the printer, I had no problems with this issue. The printer is about 2-3 years old. I have gone into the HP software on my laptop and set the preferences for photo tray, along with the size I wanted and the photo paper I was using. By the way, it is HP photo paper. I have also done the same on the print screen on my laptop. In addition, I have gone into preferences on the printer itself and chosen "Prompt for photo tray." I have also uninstalled and reinstalled the HP software on my laptop. I successfully printed the "practice picture" during the reinstalling process. None of this has solved the problem.
I have no problem printing a document from my laptop wirelessly to the printer.

Hi mountainnana,
Thank you for your response, sorry the guide was not what you were looking for.
Here are some other suggestions:
Open the HP Solution Center (icon is normally on the desktop.) Click on Set Preferences, Click on the Paper/Quality tab, for the Source choose Tray 2, choose the right paper size and media type. Click Apply, and then OK. Then try printing your photo again.
If that does not work there could be a driver/software conflict happening. If that is the case please try our HP Print and Scan Doctor.
Otherwise, proceed with a uninstall and reinstall of your printer software using the HP Printer Install Wizard for Windows.
Hope this solves your issue, and have a good day!

Using RDI Interface to send print data to SAP PI

Hi,
I have never used the SAPScript Raw Data Interface, but I now have the task to send printing information to SAP PI and
from there to a print service.
I see, that I could send the printing documents as IDoc, but is it also possible to call for example a function/program, where I could process the print data and then send it to PI?
Each different print document needs to have it's own sapscript form to derive the necessary fields of content, right?
Has anyone an idea, what I could do? Can anyone give me an overview about the possibilities of the RDI interface?
Thank you very much!
Michael

Please check the element "Dealer_code" in your SAP system . Is it a data element or a field? i dont think that is defined in your system.
