Printing to a Specific Output Bin

I have been asked to setup an output queue in SAP where all output to that printer goes to a specfic (non-default) output bin on the printer. The printer is a HP 8050 multi-function printer with 5 different output bins. I have determined the PJL and PCL codes to direct the output. My problem is that the output will both be ABAP lists and SAPSCRIPT data so I do not want to start changing specific forms or printer formats. How do I modify the printer device so that all output goes to the proper bin?

Thanks for your reply. I had previously tried the option in SPAD but had no luck. In my research I turned on logging with the test tool in SPAD and captured the PCL code generated. I am not seeing the code being sent from SAP which specifies the output bin destination. I looked for both the PJL code(set outbin=) and the PCL code (esc&l5G) for bin 5. I am running ECC 6. Are there any known issues with this tray option?

Try a NVRAM reset: (but make sure u save your n/w config 1st)
1. power off the printer
2. holding down the select and cancel buttons and powering on
3. release buttons when display reads "permanent storage init"

Laserjet printer p2050 says"output bin is full remove all paper from bin"

Printer will only print 1 or 2 times then I get the error message. I have to pull open the paper drawer & slam it closed to get it printing again

Hi Sharon453,
When you get this error message, do the flaps in the output bin stay up? And does the action of slamming the paper tray shut cause these flaps to fall? It sounds like there may be something sticking that is causing the sensor to think the output bin is full.

Printer output bin

Hi,
we have a printer with multiple output bins. So i want to control the output bin, when i'm printing from any application within the sap system.
How can i do this? I tried to control this with various default settings on the printserver, but this won't work. Do i have to modify print controls?
Is there any chance to do this?
Thanks ahead.

Hi ,
Can u try with this .,
1.     Log on to any client in the appropriate SAP system.
2.     Go to transaction SPAD.
3.     On the Spool Administration: Initial Screen screen, under the Devices\servers tab click the Output devices button. On the Spool Administration: List of Output Devices screen, click on the printer where you need to check the output requests. Then click on the printer and page picture-icon.
4.     A list of all pending output requests for the selected printer will be displayed.

User Specific Output Message Determination for Purchase Orders

Hi Sap Experts,
Is there any functionality in SAP where you can setup specific Output message determination for a user?
For example whenever User A creates a purchase order through ME21N it will always be emailed to vendor, whereas for User B whenever they create purchase orders it will always be printed.
Is this possible?

There is no standard functionality with in SAP.
To achieve this Create 2 output types accordingly and create customized tables with user id fields

9050 driver output bin option

We have multiple HP Laser Jet 9050's in our building. I cannot seem to make them print to the left side included accessory output bin with any of the 9050 drivers (5e, 6) I have not tried the PS. With these drivers, I get options that do not make sense. In the printer properties the options for enabling the side output bin are not installed, several multibin mailbox options, 2 3000 sheet stackers and HP multifunction finisher. I have tried both 3000 sheet option and the multifunction finisher. Then in the output tab of the options page, lower left bin and upper left bin (Note: there is only one bin)
On the 8150's This worked like a charm. I was able to put selected users to the side tray relieving congestion. Note: I can use the 8150 drivers but do not think I should. There have been multiple questions on the HP site on this issue but no one has adequately answered it.

L_G,
I am sorry, but to get your issue more exposure I would suggest posting it in the commercial forums since this is a commercial printer. You can do this at http://h30499.www3.hp.com/hpeb/ .
I hope this helps.

P4515N top output bin question

We are in need of a printer that can output between 1000-1500 pages unattended. We got recommended the P4515N but I am still not convinced the top output bin can hold the 1500 pages. Documentation says output bin max is 600 pages. I just want to make sure the sheets will not be flying over the place. Can someone shed light on this?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Assuming that you are using the Java API then you can use the method here to get the XMLDocument class
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/appdev.102/b14252/adx_j_xsu.htm#ADXDK070
and then use the capabilities of DOM to strip off the XML declaration, e.g. with getDocumentElement()

hope this helps

Scheduling a report to print to a specific printer tray

I'm trying to schedule a report to print to a specific tray on a specific printer.
The SDK permits me to specify the printer, using ReportPrinterOptions, but it just seems to always print to the default tray for each printer and there are no ways, that I've found, to specify a particular paper tray to print from.
Normally this isn't an issue, but we have a client that has a special report that prints to special paper that's always available in the secondary tray of the printer.
Have I missed something obvious here? Any help would be appreciated.

Hello,
You didn't specify the version of Crystal Reports you're using, the version of Visual Studio you're using, or which .NET SDK you're using. Assuming you're CR XI R2 (v11.5) with VS2003/VS2005 and the CR.NET SDK (reportdocument object) then you're looking for the CustomPaperSource property off of the PrintOptions class.
You can search the forums for additional posts, but I found this one - [Setting PaperSource|Re: Setting PaperSource;. There may be others.
You can also find information in the [CR XI R2 Developer Library|http://devlibrary.businessobjects.com/BusinessObjectsXIR2SP2/en/devsuite.htm]. Search on CustomPaperSource.
There is a tutorial available under the [PrintOptions.CustomPaperSource Property|http://devlibrary.businessobjects.com/BusinessObjectsXIR2SP2/en/en/CrystalReports_dotNET_SDK/crsdk_net_doc/doc/crsdk_net_doc/html/crlrfCrystalDecisionsCrystalReportsEnginePrintOptionsCustomPaperSourceTopic.htm] search result.
This should get you back on track.
Sincerely,
Dan Kelleher

I have created a form. I just want a specific area of the form to be printed to a specific printer in Windows 7. Is there a way to do this?

There are 2 printers on the system. I want to create a Print Button, so that if the user clicks it, a desired area prints on a specific printer.
Thanks for your consideration.

No, unfortunatley there is not. For a full listing of Unicode supported characters please refer to section Unicode Character Support at FormsCentral Help | Formula syntax for built-in functions

Why are HP printer cartridges country specific? Is there any way around this?

I have just moved from the UK to Newfoundland, Canada and I have brought my HP PSC 1610 printer with me. I was advised not to bring any cartridges with me because they would explode during the flight so I had to buy new cartridges upon arrival.
I noticed that the cartridge numbers recommended for my printer were similar but not exactly the same but the (HP, etc.) websites I looked at did not mention that HP printer cartridges country specific.
In the UK black cartridge is an HP338 (C8765EE).
In Canada the websites told me that the black cartridge is a 94 (C8765WC).
I ordered a 94 cartridge (which took an indordinate amount of time to be delivered) and when I installed it my printer would not accept it ("not intended for use in this printer" error message) even though it fit perfectly. I looked at the packaging in greater detail and noticed that I had been sent a 94 (C8765WL) and I also noticed (in a very small font size) "for sale only in Latin America".
My questions are therefore:
1) Why are HP printer cartridges country specific?
2) Is there any way around this? Eg is there anything I can do to my printer/ laptop to tell it to accept this cartridge?
3) Are 94/ C8765WL cartidges compatible with 94/ C8765WC cartirdges? Ie did the supplier sell me something that couldn't be used even if I had a Canadian HP PSC 1610 printer?
4) Can I return the cartridges to the supplier given that it is based in Canada, they delivered it to me in Canada and yet they sold me a product that says "for sale only in Latin America"?
Thanks

You will need to Contact HP to request a "Regionalization Reset". There should not be any charge for this, it is covered as part of the cartridge warranty. You will need to have access to your computer and printer while on the line with HP. You will also need to have a set of cartridges for the new region, once the reset is complete cartridges from the original region will no longer work. HP's web page on the subject is here.

HT3349 How do you select a sub-set of cells from the entire document so you can print only those specific cells?

How do you select a sub-set of cells from the entire document so you can print only those specific cells?

There is no analog to MS Excels print range. So the next best thing is to plan your data so that you don't need to use print range. The next best thing after that is to select the range of cells you want to print, then copy, the switch to the application Preview, and create a new document from the clipboard (select the menu item "File > New from Clibboard") then select all, copy then paste to the destination (maybe an email) .
You can also paste that portion of the table into another table (or a new table) by pasting values only

Print preview for PO output

Hi,
I have an issue with viewing print preview for PO output.
In Messages,output type has been defined.
I am trying to display print preview of the PO outpit by clicking on the print preview button.
Instead of displaying the print preview on my screen,the printout is directly fired in the printer.Please note I am trying to display just the print preview and not printing the PO.
This happens even when I have not set 'Print immediately' indicator in Communication setting and have defined 'Send with application own transaction'.
Your input on this would be of great help,
Regards,

Hi,
Triggering print or Preview option is dependent on driver program assigned to output type in OMTB. It will be customized program. You need to do modification in your customized program.

Download specific output fields to excel

Hi All,
We have a report program that downloads an excel file having about 60 output fields. The program has no ALV output.
Everytime we do not require these 60 fields to be shown in output excel. we need specific output fields in excel and those specific fields could be dynamic.
Is there any way to download specific output fields in excel as we do in ALV variant.
In alv, we can achieve this through a layout variant in selection screen and download the alv output in excel. But we dont require alv to download excel from there.
Thanks,
Srilakshmi.
