Printing documents on Linux

We have a problem, we got reports mixed up. Sometimes documents get printed on a different printer then specified. This seem to be happening when the concurrent programs output is send to the server at exactly the same time. Is this a known issue? Are there any suggestions?

  • Print command from linux PC on to Windows Environment

    Hi Experts,
    We have SAP on Windows and the network printer is also on Windows, the PC with Linux is integrated with network printer i.e when the print command from Linux is given the output is available from the printer (Windows). But when the print command is given through SAP there is no output from Printer (Windows).
    When same user logs into Windows the printer command is successful.

    hi hari,
    Printing SAP documents using Linux client is a little bit tricky if you want to get good printing result just as when you print from your Windows client.
    If you want to use G printing method (on Linux client), you can't use SAPWIN on device type since SAPWIN is relying printing method. You must use exact printer driver. For example when you're using Dot Matrix printer Epson LX300+, you can use EPESCP2
    I am using different method to cheat this and it's completely work.

  • When printing document and comments output is only the comments

    When I select Print document and comments (Ctrl+T)in Acrobat 6 and have my "Print with:" set as Documents and comments the output is only the comments with their location in the document. The original document however is not printed. How can I prevent this?

    So, does the bursting process print completely independent of the style/driver setups in EBS? If that's the case, then I will have to check with my sysadmins on the printer setups on the Linux server like you mentioned.

  • Airport Print Serving and Linux

    I have a small ethernet wired network with three macs and one PC running Ubuntu linux. The printer for the network is hanging off an Airport-Express in my network closet. All the macs print fine but I need to be able to print from the linux box as well. As such, I need to know what protocol that apple uses to support the print server function. Or, I need some advice on setting it up with an SMB protocol. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi,
    Sorry for delaying in reply.
    Linux clients see page count. I've paused printing and checked some documents. Property page from a linux client document shows as this:
    Documents sent from windows clients show same but they've document name and page count.

  • Print Document in Matrix printer

    Hi, please helpme
    how document print in matrix printer.?
    the characteristic  are.
    - document type smartforms
    - printer EPSON II
    - size paper is Letter
    - The transaction that I use is S_P00_07000134
    - S.O. is Linux
    Problems now are.
    The printed document shows misaligned information
    That I must realize in order that the impression of the document shows aligned information
    Thanks for you help.
    Carlos Orden
    Edited by: Carlos Orden on Mar 22, 2011 12:11 AM

    Hi,
    Does the alignment look correct in te print preview? There are some problems with dot matrix printers due to limitations of the ESC/P printer lamguage.(see SAP note #19807)
    Try printing via windows and a windows device type like SAPWIN or SWINCF. The result should be better.

  • How do I use a cups printer on a linux machine from mountain lion

    I have always used a linux cups printer on my network from my iMac. You could even browse the printer when looking for it. Worked fine.
    Now in the updated Mountain Lion (10.8.2) is cannot see the remote printer anymore. 
    If I create the printer using cups through the web interface on my iMac, which is conected to the linux server, I can create teh printer, and print a test page on this printer on the linux server! Great.
    But I cannot pick the printer from a list from any application on my Mac. It is as if it does not exist (but I can print a testpage though ...).
    This a a real bad change in Mountain Lion. I consider to go back to Lion (10.7).
    Isn't there any way to get this working or do I realy need to downgrade to 10.7
    Thanks for any hints!

    Hi VikingOSX and Grant Bennet-Alder.
    Thanks for the replies, but unfortunately, they do not work.
    The solutions you suggest are all OK for 10.7.x (and I have used them before), but these steps do nothing in 10.8.2. No difference at all.
    I have also tried various other suggestions I found on the web and in this forum, such as:
    cupsctl BrowseRemoteProtocols=cups
    cupsctl BrowseProtocols='"cups dnssd"'
    They all seems to work (and I needed them before in 10.7.x), but they don't seem to help any more in 10.8.2
    To illustrate the problem, I have tested the following 4 cases (in this particular order) on iMac 10.8.2 through CUPS web browser leding to teh following (copied text from CUPS web interface):
    Step 1:
    Description:          EPSONserver
    Location:          server
    Driver:                    Local Raw Printer (grayscale)
    Connection:          http://192.168.1.94:631/printers/R285
    Defaults:          job-sheets=none, none media=unknown
    Jobs
    ▼ ID ▼          Name          User          Size          Pages          State          Control
    EPSONserver-23           Unknown           Withheld           1k           1            processing since Sat Oct 6 14:59:57 2012 "Printing page 1, 85%"
    Result step 1:
    Test page: via CUPS web browser, OK. works just fine, full color and everything looks just fine
    Printer in printer list: No, installed printer not available in OSX.
    Can print from application: No, printer not in printer list. Cannot select printer.         
    Step 2:
    Description:          EPSONserver
    Location:          server
    Driver:                    EPSON SP R285 Series (color, 2-sided printing)
    Connection:          http://192.168.1.94:631/printers/R285
    Defaults:          job-sheets=none, none media=na_letter_8.5x11in sides=one-sided
    Jobs
    ▼ ID ▼          Name          User          Size          Pages          State          Control
    EPSONserver-24           Unknown           Withheld           1k           Unknown            stopped "Filter failed"              
    Result step 2:
    Test page: via CUPS web browser: NO. "Filter failed"
    Printer in printer list: YES
    Can print from application: NO, "Filter failed".
    Step 3:
    Description:          EPSONserver
    Location:          server
    Driver:          Generic PostScript Printer (color, 2-sided printing)
    Connection:          http://192.168.1.94:631/printers/R285
    Defaults:          job-sheets=none, none media=na_letter_8.5x11in sides=one-sided Jobs
    Result step 3:
    Test page: via CUPS web browser: low resolution/bad quality, black and white test page
    Printer in printer list: YES, it remained in printer list when changed from step 2 to step 3.
    Can print from application: Yes, but bad quality, not useful at all.
    Step 4 = change settings back to step 1 :
    Description:          EPSONserver
    Location:          server
    Driver:                    Local Raw Printer (grayscale)
    Connection:          http://192.168.1.94:631/printers/R285
    Defaults:          job-sheets=none, none media=unknown
    Result step 4:
    Test page: via CUPS web browser: OK. works just fine, full color and everything looks just fine
      Printer in printer list: it disappeared from the printer list at the moment the changes back from step 3 to step 1 were activated.
      Can print from application: No, printer not in printer list. Cannot select printer.
    Overall conclusion:
    The printer appears in the printer list only when it is a postscript printer or using manufacturer drivers (i.e epson drivers). It does NOT appear when using a RAW printer (but works fine printing test pages through the CUPS web interface).
    10.8.2. seems to have a serious bug.
    Any help? Or is downgrading to 10.7 my only solution?
    THX for reading!

  • FI-CA document type when a print document is created

    Hello everybody,
    We have been searching events (e.g. 0061)/user-exit to change the FI-CA document type when a print document (based on our own logic) is created with transaction EASIBI without success. Maybe you have enhanced something in another project. Can you share you experiences?
    Thanks in advance.

  • Major problem saving and printing documents on two computers

    This is a bizarre problem that seems to have been transferred from my old MDD to my new Mini when I migrated all my old data and it has me baffled. My apologies if this explanation seems long and complicated but I want to be pretty thorough.
    About a month ago I started experiencing a problem with printing. I noticed when printing a sheet of business cards that the page was getting compressed, for lack of a better word, vertically. This was very noticeable because the trim marks on the side of the page were not lining up with the perforations and each row of cards was getting progressively closer to the top as each row was printed. In other words, the first row of cards was okay but then the next row was a little too far "north", the next row a little more, the next row a little more, etc. The bottom of the page was not cut off, it was just squeezed up a bit but not enough that you could tell that the proportions were off. Now I see that many of my documents are like that no matter what application I've use to create them – Pages, Illustrator, Avery DesignPro. What's even worse, I've used Pages to create a sheet of business cards for a friend and Illustrator to make packaging labels and she's having the same problem printing the PDFs of the labels on a different computer. What this seems to tell me is that something has been corrupted and the computer is saving messed up files.
    So, about ten days ago I got a Mini and migrated my data using Migration Assistant. And the problem has now been transferred to the Mini. So I now have two Macs connected to two different HP printers that are both incapable of printing (and apparently saving) documents in the proper proportions.
    Now, a truly weird thing is that I printed a test sheet of business cards from the Mini on the printer connected to the MDD (via printer sharing) and it appeared that the document printed at the correct length. However, another document, a sheet of labels created in Illustrator, printed at the right length but one edge was slightly cropped off. Grrr.
    Anyway, as I said, until about a month ago everything worked fine so something got messed up at that time to cause this problem with saving and printing documents. I need to get this resolved for business reasons – I'm an aspiring designer – but the only thing I can think of doing is wiping out my Mini and reloading everything except my account settings from Time Machine unless someone has advice on what to do. Help! (And yes, I've checked to see that page scaling was always set at 100%.)

    Well, I've just about had it. I erased the disk, reinstalled the OS, Adobe CS4, and iWork. I did not use Migration Assistant this time to restore my settings but still my Mac prints documents in the wrong dimensions. Could this be a sudden HP problem? It seems to me some system setting somewhere is making my computer save and print documents in the wrong size. I now have a computer that is almost useless for designing. Lucky me.

  • Problem Printing Documents - No Doc Flavors Supported

    Hello everybody. I've been trying to implement a print feature in my applications and I've had absolutely zero luck. Basically, I'm trying to print the contents of an html file. However, there are no PrintServices that show up on my machine that support DocFlavors text/html, or even text/plain.
    I searched all over the Internet, but the only tutorials I found involved printing GUI components. I tried putting everything in a JEditorPane and then printing it, but the table is so large horizontally, it runs off the side, so I don't think that route will work.
    I checked IRC, scanned through all of Sun's tutorials and print service API documentation, and even searched around for open source Java word processors so I could check how their print features are implemented, but I can't find anything to help me figure this out. I know there has to be a way, though... or stuff like EIOffice and ThinkFree.com wouldn't be able to work. Can somebody please point me in the right direction?
    Here's the current code I have:
              //display print dialog
              DocFlavor df=new DocFlavor("text/html; charset="+DocFlavor.hostEncoding,"java.io.InputStream");
              PrintRequestAttributeSet attributes=new HashPrintRequestAttributeSet();
              attributes.add(new javax.print.attribute.standard.JobName("NutraSmart Menu",null));
              PrintService[] services=PrintServiceLookup.lookupPrintServices(df,attributes);
              PrintService service=null;
              if(services.length>0)
                   service=ServiceUI.printDialog(this.getGraphicsConfiguration(), this.getX()+50, this.getY()+50, services, services[0], null, attributes);
              else
                   JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(getContentPane(),"No print services could be found to print this menu.","Error printing menu",JOptionPane.ERROR_MESSAGE);
                   nutrasmart.debug(nutrasmart.ERROR,"Could not find any services to print menu");
              //print menu
              if(service!=null)
                   try
                        //create temporary HTML file to print from
                        File tmpfile=File.createTempFile("nsmenu",".html");
                        tmpfile.deleteOnExit();
                        String tmpfilestr=tmpfile.getPath();
                        export_HTML(tmpfilestr);
                        FileInputStream tmpfilestream;
                        try
                             tmpfilestream=new FileInputStream(tmpfilestr);
                        catch(FileNotFoundException e)
                             JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(getContentPane(),"A problem was encountered while preparing the menu to print.","Error printing menu",JOptionPane.ERROR_MESSAGE);
                             return;
                        //print document
                        DocPrintJob pj=service.createPrintJob();
                        Doc doc=new SimpleDoc(tmpfilestream,df,new HashDocAttributeSet());
                        pj.print(doc,attributes);
                   catch(Exception e)
                        JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(getContentPane(),"There was a problem with printing the menu.","Error printing menu",JOptionPane.ERROR_MESSAGE);
                        nutrasmart.debug(nutrasmart.ERROR,"Error printing file",e.getMessage());
              }

    Really we have a crazy font management.
    We have more than 9000 fonts in the /Library/Fonts
    To avoid conficts between the the installed system fonts and the Document font folder, we don't use the document font folder, so that we use always the /Library/Fonts/ fonts installed. Anyway some time ago we also used the Document Font folder and we got the same problem.
    I think that your idea about closing the document before the printing process has been finished is very interesting. What I do is :
    doc.print(print_preset);
    doc.close();
    But I don't how can I test if the document is being closed before finishing the printing process.

  • How do I get my Kodak ESP 3.2s printer to print documents from my iPad ?

    I have an iPad
    I have a Kodak ESP 3.2s all in one printer
    I have set it up to print via my home wi fi using my normal laptop with Microsoft
    However I couldn't  work out how to print from my iPad as its not configured for Apple!
    I downloaded Kodak Pic flick HD app
    This means I can now print photos from my iPad!  Great
    But still can't print documents it seems     I get a message saying No AirPrint Printers Found
    Any advice very welcome
    Thank you

    Airprint is a technology created by Apple Inc. and introduced in iOS 4.0 that allowed iPads, iPhones, and iPod Touches to print directly to Airprint compatible printers. Unlike computer printing where the drivers, fonts, etc. are stored on the computer and sent to the printer with the document with Airprint fonts, drivers, etc. are stored on the printer and need not be sent with the document.
    The solution to your problem is 3rd party software which both Jim and I suggested to you.

  • How can i use only black cartridge for printing documents

    i have today installed hp 1510 all in one printer, it uses ink from the both cartridges i just want to use black ink for printing documents, how can i do that
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Hi @sandeepv 
    I can help you with your print settings, so the printer will print black and white only.
    If you have a Mac operating system, use the instructions below.
    Printing with the Black Print Cartridge Only option
    Click File and then click Print.
    Make sure your printer is selected.
    Verify that the Preset option is set to Standard.
    In the Copies & Pages menu, select Select Paper Type / Quality.
    NOTE:If this option is not available, click ColorSync. Then click the down arrow beside Quartz Filter and change the setting from None to Black & White.
    Select the Paper tab.
    From the Color option menu, select Grayscale.
    Select the Color Options tab.
    Select the Black Print Cartridge Only option.
    If that option is not listed, then it is not available. The printer will print using only the black cartridge, however, printing with one cartridge will be slower than printing with both cartridges.
    NOTE:To save the setting, click the arrow next to Preset and select Save As. Save the Preset option as Black Cartridge Only and then click OK. Then, the next time you want to print with just the black cartridge, select the Black Cartridge Only Preset.    -Source
    If you are using a Windows operating system, use the instructions in the following link. Although this document is titled Changing Print Settings in Windows 8 it can be used for other Windows operating systems. The navigation from Windows 8 to older Windows operating systems would vary, please let me know if you are using a different operating system and/or if you require additional assistance.

  • I have an 10x14" InDesign image that I'd like to shrink to fit within a 8.5x11 printed document.

    I have an 10"x14" InDesign image that I'd like to shrink to fit within a 8.5"x11" printed document (using InDesign) without losing the quality of the image (especially on print). What is the correct/least destructive process to do this?
    And how is it that you can view different image sizes on Flickr (of the same image) and it doesn't seem to effect the quality of the image?
    I have tried saving/exporting the InDesign image as an EPS file, then opening the file in Photoshop, adjusting the size to my liking, saving it as a Photoshop file, then placing that file in a new InDesign document, and the image comes up distorted looking/pixelated even with my screen zoomed at 100%. I've also tried this same process with exporting it as a PDF file instead of an EPS file with the same distorted/pixelated results.
    Help!?!?!  Thank you in advance!!
    Linds10m

    I am assuming you are in InDesign CS5:
    Change your InDesign Document Size, but before you do this you must make sure the "Enable Layout Adustment" is on.
    Under: Layout/Layout Adjustment/Check the "Enable Layout Adjustment" box is checked and adjust Snap Zone.
    ALSO: Make sure your horizontal and vertical margins touches your live area.
    Then you can change size of document

  • My HP officejet 6210 no longer prints documents from my Mac ibook G4 running 10.4.11; starts to process the document, but then stops the print,if I restart print same thing happens

    My ibookG4, running 10.4.11 suddenly decided it no longer wants to print documents thru my HP officejet 6210 all-in-one printer.  So far I've tried emails, excel and word all with the same result.  The computer will start to process the print request (processing seems to take longer than previously) and then suddenly the processing stops and a red exclamation mark appears next to the printer image at the bottom of screen.  When I pull up the printer utility it tells me the printer is "stopped".  If I restart it, the process begins all over again until once again it stops.  I have already deleted the printer completely from my computer and reinstalled the software fom the HP site.  For some reason had a really tough time finding the correct print drivers on the HP site, but did finally locate them.  I have not even attempted scanning during this (I see lots of people reported issues with that for the 6210), I would be happy if I could at least print again.  I am connecting via USB.  Is there some way to fix this?

    Hi,
    please check whether the two solutions below work:
    1. create a contract with milestone billing plan where there are only down payment billings, so that on the basis of the contract you can generate down payment requests and then relevant down payments, release the contract to a sales order which can then be delivered and billed, manually clear the billing document with the down payments
    2. from FI module, create down payment requests via t-code F-37 directly, and then down payment posting, generate sales order directly, and then deliver and bill, manually clear the billing document with the down payments

  • Missing pages in printed document

    Some topics are missing in the printed document. What could be the reason for this? I have tried and tried but could not get those pages printed.

    Welcome to the RH forums.
    Perhaps you could give us some additional information which would help us here. What version of RH are you using? Is the problem only in one project or on one PC? Is it the same pages that are always missing? Are they always missing from the start, middle, end? That sort of thing.
    For a start, check that you have included all the required pages correctly. Check out this link.  Also check to see if you have any Conditional Build Tags that could be filtering out the topics you are expecting to see.
