Printing Problem from ALV

Hi,
When I run my report, its perfectly working fine with all the data, subtotals, grand totals etc.
But when I print the ALV by clicking the PRINT Button on the Standard tool bar, My first subtotals are printing correctly. From second, its printing ZEROES and my grand totals are printing double the number as I see on the output.
This is strange and am not able to understand why I get those errors.
ANy pointers please.
Thanks,
Kiran

Hi Roger,
I am using Function Module "REUSE_ALV_HIERSEQ_LIST_DISPLAY"
I am displaying a hierarchical ALV with subtotals, page-breaks & grand totals.
The strange thing is  that my  first SUBtotal gets printed properly. Its the problem from the second subtotal onwards.
Finally, the grand totals also a problem(Doubling when i print first time and triplling,if  i print 2nd time ...and so on...)
ANy  more clues please.
Thanks,
Kiran D

  • Printing problem in ALV report.

    Hi,
    I have made an ALV report using 'REUSE_ALV_LIST_DISPLAY' FM. There are 18 coloumns in this report which i want to print in A4 paper. Thses all coloumns are printing but the font size is too small and also printing start from left most i.e. no margin for FILING. How to increase font size and left margin for filing. Kindly suggest.
    Regards,
    Rajesh Vasudeva

    Hi
    The font size depends on the format you've choosen for the print.
    The abap list arranges the page as grid: colunmXrow.
    Every colunm of a page means a character.
    If you use the standard format X_65_200, it means you're page is arranged for 65 row and 200 colunm:
    that means the size of a character is optimized to can print 200 chararcter in a A4 page.
    If you use the standard format X_65_132 it means you're page is arranged for 65 row and132 colunm:
    that means the size of a character is optimized to can print 132 chararcter in a A4 page.
    So that mean the size of format X_65_132 will be bigger than X_65_200, because in the same space (page A4) it needs to write 132 char instead of 200.
    If your report print NN char, u should use the format wiith number colunm is closer to NN.
    If there isn't a format or u use the first available format or u create a new one by trx SPAD.

  • Home network printing problem from Windows 8

    I have 3 PCs on my home network:
    1.    Windows XP desktop (Pro SP3) with HP 6500 E709a USB printer.
    2.    Windows 7 desktop (Ultimate SP1 64 bit) with HP 1018 USB printer.
    3.    Windows 8 (64 bit) laptop.
    Both printers are NOT Ethernet printers.
    All computers can see each other and share folders on the home network.
    Computers 1 & 2 can freely print on their own printers, as well as on each other's printer.
    The problem is with computer 3 (Win8): it can see both printers, but can't print on either (in fact, I can print a test page on the HP 1018 printer from the printer driver on the Win8 machine, but I can't print anything from any application). 
    I tried to install HP 6500 driver on the Win8 machine, I turned on Network Discovery in the Advanced Sharing Settings on it, but it still doesn't work.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Is there any "general puprpose" driver for HP 6500 E709a, something to replace the WIN8 driver that fails?

  • Wireless printing problem from OS X 10.2.8 and Win XP

    I have three machines I want to be able to print wirelessly through my airport express. Currently, only one of them will print wirelessly - which is lousy, help.
    Machine #1 is running Windows XP. It connects to the internet through the airport express just fine, no problem there. The problem is connecting to the printer. Machine #1 will print just fine when I connect the USB directly to the computer, but wirelessly I can't figure out how to hook it up properly through the airport express to the printer. The part I keep getting hung up on is that the airport express manual says to add another printer put in 10.0.1.1 for the IP address, but when I do so, the machine says that that address is already taken and it beeps at me real loud and gives me an error message - end of story. I suspect I need another IP address, but I can't figure out where to find it. Help.
    Machine #2 is my old ibook G3, which is running Mac OS X 10.2.8. The airport express should be able to make it so I can print wirelessly from machine #2, but this one is not working out either. Machine #2 connects to the internet just fine, and when I connect the printer manually to machine #2 it prints just fine. When I try to print wirelessly, through the airport express, it starts out ust fine, the printer begins to print, then all of a sudden, as if for no reason, it "stops the job". I "start the job" back up through the print center, and then it "stops the job" again. we play this game a bit, but I never get farther than printing the first few lines of my print job. It never really makes any progress, it just pretends like ti might if it felt like it. In this case, I've been looking online for some software patch that would fix this problem - looked on the apple site and on the epson site, and haven't made any progressfor many hours. Help!
    Machine #3 has no problems. It surfs the internet, plays music on my stereo and prints wirelessly without any trouble at all. It is my new ibook G4 running OS X 10.4. Is it possible to get machine #1 and machine #2 able to print wirelessly just like machine #3? (i'd like all three machines to be able to stream music to my stereo too, but I don't want to push my luck. I'll be ecstatic if I can get these other two machines to print wirelessly. I'm so tired of having to pull that printer cable out from under the couch everytime I need to print something.)
    Thanks to anyone who can help. Hey, thanks for just reading this.

    thank you for your response!
    I am about to look into the efelix site for the PC, thank you. i'm excited.
    for the mac, me thinks that i am out of luck with updating the driver. on the epson site the most recent drivers for my printer (epson sytlus photo 820) are for OS X 10.1.3 - 10.2.6, and I am running OS X 10.2.8.
    Hmmmm, I downloaded the driver anyway, and it gives me an APPLICATION LAUNCH FAILURE because of a "shared library error" when I try to launch the new drivers. The other thing on the site is a PIM II Plug In - which doesn't look like a driver to me.
    a link to the lack of drivers for my poor mac...

  • Odd Printing Problem from BO 6.5.1

    Hi, I have been asked to support BO 6.5.1 users and some of them create .pdf files which don't print correctly. The heading boxes, table structures and formatting are retained but the text is replaced with random characters. The docs look fine on screen, it is only when they are printed out that the problem occurs. I am sure I have ruled out printing problems, email problems and Adobe 8.0 problems, particularly because this is only happening with pdf's from BO sent to any printer and so I feel it must be a fault with BO. Has anyone seen this before? Grateful for any advice

    Hi Greyhat,
    as you refer to the legacy technology VB6 I recommend to post this query to the [Legacy Application Development SDKs|SAP Crystal Reports - Legacy SDKs; forum.
    This forum is dedicated to topics related to legacy SDKs, including the Report Designer Component (RDC), OCX, VCL, and Crystal Reports Print Engine (CRPE).
    It is monitored by qualified technicians and you will get a faster response there.
    Also, all Legacy Application Development SDKs queries remain in one place and thus can be easily searched in one place.
    Thanks a lot,

  • Printing Problems from iMac G4 to HP Photosmart 7760-photos heavy on pink!

    Hello,
    We have an iMac G4 Flat Panel using OS 10.3.9 and are connected to the HP Photosmart 7760 Printer. The printer is printing heavy on the pink side photographs.
    When we print directly from our camera card, the printer prints fine. True colors. When we print using any software application, (ie Photoshop, iPhoto) the printer prints extremely heavy on the pink side. We have installed new cartridges, have cleaned and calibrated the printer, have unplugged and restarted the printer and still to no avail we have pink tinted photographs.
    Could someone help please?
    Thank You!
    iMac G4 Flat Panel   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    It seemed to be nothing involving my printer, a recalibration of the computer display did the trick.

    Check this discussion for workaround to the color shift printing problem in LR. It's for the 3800, but I assume it also applies to other Epson printers, and quite possibly to other printer vendors.

    Yes it applies to Canon as well.

  • Printing problem from home to office

    I have an HP1606dn laser printer which works fine when I am in the school building.  However, all of a sudden, if I try to print wirelessly from home (which I have been doing for 2 years), I get the message that the printer is offline and I cannot print.  Apparently, the printer is not turning on automatically if I am using a VPN.  Any suggestions?
    Thanks a million!!!
    Mary Jane

    Are you using Windows or AppleTalk printing to connect to the 2003 server?
    Have you tried deleting the printer from the server and re-installing it? Tried re-installing the driver and PPD for the Phaser? Also, have you tried deleting the printer from the Macs and reconnecting?
    Do your server's Event Logs show anything?

    changing

    When you export to excel, the character fields and numeric columns gets re-arranged, but all the fields will be displayed in this case.
    hope this helps.

  • Tabloid duplex printing problem from CS4 (Acrobat and InDesign)

    I cannot print a two-page tabloid (landscape mode) pdf document properly from a MacBook Pro or a Mac Pro running 10.6.2 using Adobe Products (Acrobat 8 or 9, or InDesign CS3 or CS4) to an HP LJ5550DN. The printed version prints on both sides of the paper, but the right 1/4 of each page doesn't print. Furthermore, if I reboot and print just one side, it prints fine, but when I select duplex I get this problem and if I try to print just one side again, it prints w/o the 1/4 of the right side of the paper.
    I can print the tabloid duplex correctly using Preview on the same computers. I can also print correctly using Acrobat 7 from a Mac G4 running Mac OS 10.4.11. I can print a single tabloid sheet correctly from Illustrator CS3 or CS4 from the Snow Leopard computers, but since Illustrator doesn't handle more than one page, can't send it duplex.
    I conclude that the problem is the Adobe software under Snow Leopard. If you know what is wrong with the Adobe software, please send me the fix - it would streamline the process.

    I'm having exactly the same problem, with a 5500dn. As with you, the problem is present in both CS3 and Acrobat 8 and 9, and I can print a duplex A3/tabloid PDF correctly with Preview. (only the colour balance is rubbish!)
    Mac OS 10.6.2, print driver HP Color Laserjet 5500 v3010.107 (although it's obviously not the driver).
    Needless to say, any solution to this needs to address CS3 and later apps.
    Bug report filed.
    Thanks,

  • Printing problem from Photoshop CS2 to HP 3500CP plotter

    I am running Photoshop CS2 on the computer connected to my 3500CP plotter. I have for the past few years had no problem printing. This past several days tried to proint a banner for my daughter's birthday and whenI go from Print with Preview to start the print it shows the plotter is receiving the file. The plotter automatically does a printhead check and then shows it is printing but then just starts rolling a blank page out until I stop it and reset everything. I have run several tests on the plotter and all come back good so I am guessing it is coming from Photoshop though I am doing nothing different than I have before. I hope someone has a suggestion sisnce I need this banner before Friday. My daughter turns 33 on 11/11/11. Thank you in advance.

    Well... I fixed the problem a little differently. I got a 100% + costs refund from HP themselves and bought an Epson! Boy, was that ever the right decision to make. I've had not a single problem with the Epson where the HP gave me a litany of endless drama. I can't understand why a printer maker needs to create faulty and bug ridden software that wants to take control over both Windows and Photoshop and then they try and blame everyone except themselves.
    The HP Z5400 postscript printer proved one important thing to me... You only ever get what you pay for. I run canvas about4 to 5 hours a day with the Epson. I had to stay at work past 8 hours a day just to get the same amount of work out of the HP. For speed, I've never had anything faster than a Canon 8100 but the hidden costs of ownership are horrendous. The HP was the cheapest printer I've had and the slowest. The Epson is economical to run, performs at a reasonable speed and doesn't have any hidden costs.
    After 5 months of hassling HP to get the "next day, on-site" support I paid $1200 extra for and never got, I can guarantee you I'll never , ever own another Hewlett Packard product again. I had to go to the Asian Pacific head off to get anyone who'd listen to me. The Australians wanted me to sign a form I'd keep my mouth shut and sacrifice nearly a grand I'd put into it before talking about a refund. Then I discovered they'd been fined 3 MILLION bucks by the competition and consumer watch dog in Australia over telling someone who bought a $200 printer to go take a walk when it dropped its guts a few weeks after buying it. That mob is pure poison for consumers.

  • Printing problems from acrobat with recieved pdf's

    Hi everybody,
    We have a problem with printing PDF files on windows 7 32 bit. This only happens with files that have come through one persons emails. When you open the PDF file from outlook it works fine but when you print it it crashes the print spooler service and the print job gets stuck in the print queue then you have to go into the queue and manually delete it. When I open pdf files that i have downloaded it all seems to work fine and will print.
    Any help would be muchly appreciated
    Also from this email you can email to an xp machine and it prints but if you email to the other windows 7 machine it does the same thing. But the other windows 7 machine can print thier PDF's from thier emails
    Thanks
    Jake

    Quite frankly, it would really help the Adobe Acrobat team if you at least provided information as to what version of Acrobat or Reader you were using, what type of printer (manufacturer, model, and whether PostScript or not), etc.
    We are not aware of a general problem of the type you describe and such information would help us track the issue down to assist you and any other users.
