Printing to local print device from WEBGUI

Hi SAP expert
Got a question regarding WEBGUI priniting.
In SAPGUI when you select print to LOCL, it print to the PC default print device, but if we print via a WEBGUI screen, the printing output to a PDF file first, we can then print from the PDF file.
Is it possible to print from the WEBGUI without going through a PDF generation? or make WEBGUI understand the local print device?
Any help or suggestion will be most appreciated.

As far as i remember is not possible to print to LOCL from a webgui session (i can't remember exactly why)..
Try configuring your default printer as a network printer in SAP with method F or U and you'll be fine.

Print from Webgui

Hi Experts,
We are able to print from WEBGUI using the SAP help portal link
https://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwmobile711/helpdata/en/56/4c4e3c57f40a40e10000000a114084/content.htm
Is it possible to print from the WEBGUI without going through a PDF generation.?
Thanks & Regards
Thiru

Dear Thiru,
if I understand correctly you use the frontend printing (Access Method F or G) for WebGUI.
In this case only PDF can be used because the print data can not be processed on the frontend in any other way.
However, if local Access Methods (C or L) is used, then other formats can be used too.
Best regards,
Laszlo

Error message: "Remove USB Device from printer."

I have an HP Photosmart 309 a All-In-One. It is attached to my desktop computer, which utilizes the Windows XP system. I've owned the All-In-One for about three years. I do not use the All-In-One -- or this computer -- very much. (I mostly use my laptop.)
I have not made any changes to this computer and/or All-In-One in quite some time. This error message is new. I do not have a USB device attached to the printer. Even with the error message displayed, the All-In-One allows me to print, but it will not allow me to make a copy or scan. How do I make this error message go away? What's wrong with my All-In-One? Thank you for your help!

Hi DuckLakeSue,
I understand that you are getting an error message to 'Remove USB Device from printer'. Follow the steps provided in this link by the PrintDoc to determine if your wireless radio has failed.
I hope this helped, let me know.
Thank you,

Printing directly from a mobile device that is NOT on a wifi network

I would like to print directly from an ipad, that does not connect to a home wifi connection.
I have read in some forums, that the HP 6520 can create a direct ad-hoc style wifi connection that the IOS device can connect to, but this is not clearly stated in the feature set on this website.
Can a support admin please clarify whether printing directly from a mobile device that is NOT connected to a shared wifi network is possible?

Hi,

Printing photos from your Android device

Have you tried printing photos from your Android device (Samsung, Nexus, HTC, Sony etc) ?
http://www.hp.com/united-states/campaigns/mobility/#android-tab-new
Some people have reported issues with skewed borders when trying to print 4x6 & 5x7 photos (see example below of correct photo size v's photo with skewed borders)
If you run into this issue I would advise you to download the free HP ePrint APP from the App Store or Google Play, this allows you to print perfect borderless photos,
Hope this helps.

To print from your PC, please check out the following iFelix article.
To print from an iOS device (iPhone, iPod Touch, or iPad), the printer must be AirPrint-ready. If the printer is not, another option would be to use something like.
Also you can check out this Apple Support article.

Have you tried restarting the printer? Reboot the iPad as well.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

Hp d110a prints blurry from any iOS device, but not from any other kind of device.

My D110a prints blurry...almost like a shadow...when printing via AirPrint on any iOS device, but if I print from other devices, or just print a report, it prints correctly. I have attempted to search on the device's control panel (both on the device and web-based) to see if there is a print setting, and I will also check my router.
Does anyone know why this would be happening? I have access to another HP ePrint All-In-One at my job, and my iPad prints fine to that printer.
Thanks much,
Chris

Hello Choirguy,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums! I understand when printing from Apple Devices with the AirPrint driver it prints blurry. We know it is not the HP Photosmart D110a, as you can print reports from the front panel with no problem and all other Operating systems are fine and print correctly. Please let me know the following:
1. Is the D110a connected directly to a wall outlet, without power strips or surge protectors connected?
2. What other devices are you able to successfully print from, and how are they connected USB or Wireless>
3. Do you have any software installed on the devices that are able to print from?
I will watch for your reply, so we can continue.
Thanks,

My iMac is printing duplexed documents on a wirelessly connected Epson printer extremely slowly (minutes), but prints fast from and IOS device using AirPrint. Settings don't offer any help. Can anyone advise, please?

I have a one-year old (intel) iMac, now running on Mountain Lion. I have a wireless network with an Epson Photo Stylus PX830FWD printer which has an auto-duplexer. My problem is that when I print a two-sided document, the print takes minutes rather than seconds. It prints at normal speed if I use the print facility on my iPad or iPhone (AirPrint), which suggests that the Mac settings are at fault. I have been through all the settings on System Preferences that I can find, but nothing makes any difference.
I didn't notice it prining at slow speed on Snow Leopard or Lion OSX!
Any suggestions, please?

I just figured out the print quality issue for my wife with her new iMac and new printer.
She replaced both at once and she couldn't understand why her Artisan 730 was lower quality then her Epson R280 when they had the same specs.
Turns out the newer printer had the option to connect via wifi which we used during setup.
The driver options are completely different depending on how you connect.
Once I connected via USB the correct options were available and the print quality was better.
Looking at the R2400 it dies not have wifi, but while researching the problem for my wife someone esle was having an issue updating to the latest printer driver.
If you go into the print utility from the Printer and Scanner system preference and under the general tab you should have driver 5.5.
One user had to delete the old printer driver before Software Update loaded the newer printer driver.

On my MacBook Pro (w Snow Leopard) I always had to reconnect my wifi at home when it woke up. I upgraded my router from an old Netgear to a newer N D-Link and stopped having to do that.
I would be surprised you would have that problem with an Airport Extreme, you might check to see if there is a firmware update for it.

Error message in Adobe Pdf in printer device panel when trying to create a pdf document. I have CS3

Error message in Adobe Pdf in printer device panel when trying to create a pdf document. I have CS3 Web Premium with Acrobat Professional 8. I use it fine on my old computer with Windows XP. I recently got a new laptop with Windows 7. I installed all my Adobe programs, and I think they are working. When I look at Adobe PDF in the device section of the Control Panel it looks okay. But when I try to print a Word, Photoshop, or HTML page in PDF, nothing happens. I have tried printing both as File>print and using the PDF tab on the top menu bar. I look at the device in the control panel and it has the yellow error warning symbol and suggests trying to troubleshoot. I look at the document list and it says status "error". When I try troubleshooting Windows suggests doing some Home Sharing and also suggests canceling the document I'm trying to print. I tried re-installing just Acrobat 8 from CS3 (and have to use Photoshop CS4 disk for shared documents I guess). I ran into a can't locate adobepdf_dll file, so did a web search on this issue and found a suggestion that I find and use the adobepdf_dll_64 file and may have to (I did have to) remove the "_64" for it to work. I think I successfully reinstalled using that dll file- no errors came up anyway. But still when I try printing/converting a photoshop, webpage, or word document into pdf, the pdf device in control panel still gives the error status on the document and gives the same troubleshooting advice. Help?

I just compared the properties between the two computers. On the old computer it has the port as "My Documents/*.pdf". On my new computer it lists the port as "LPT1". I tried changing the port to "Print as File", but when I try printing a photoshop picture as pdf, I get a "Access Denied". I then tried to create a new port on the device control panel. I tried to create a local port "My Documents/*.pdf" port but was denied. I ten tried to create a new port type and control panel asked for an INF file. I wonder if this is where my problem lies. Thoughts?

Can't Print/Connect from Windows 7 64 bit to Shared PSC 1315 on Windows 7 32bit Machine

Can't Print/Connect from Windows 7 64 bit to Shared PSC 1315 on Windows 7 32bit Machine...
I tried to install driver on connecting PC, i tried to install printer as Local printer with local port - \\WIN7-32bit\HP PSC 1310 Series\ - and i got access denied, and before i reinstall Windows on 64Bit machine its worked correctly... anyone know how to solve this problem ?
*Edited*
When i connect it on 64 Bit machine printer requesting driver *.inf and not specific file...
i try to install 64bit driver on 32 bit machine in sharing options and they didn't support it...

More than likely, you are receiving the access denied error because there may not be a HomeGroup in place.
To handle networks securely with Windows 7, Microsoft took a different approach. A HomeGroup essentially creates a trust among all the devices in that home group. If a device is not in that homegroup, then that system will essentially be denied access.
Click on Install a printer on a home network to get basic steps to install a printer in a network environment.
Click on HomeGroup: recommended links to get more information about Home Groups, including setting one up.

This is a hint to anyone who cannot find their airprint printer from their ipad: after 10 hours of trying everything imaginable, i can now print directly from my iPad by turning off the bluetooth in settings and waiting for 30 seconds. presto!

after spending a full day and a half trying everything imaginable, i finally found a way to get my ipad to find my new airprint capable printer. I could print from email or the cloud, but not directly from my ipad. After reading a discussion about bluetooth printers, i turned off bluetooth in settings, waited 30 seconds, and voila!! I was able to print directly from my ipad. Try it if you are having troubles

Greetings,
I've never seen this issue, and I handle many iPads, of all versions. WiFi issues are generally local to the WiFi router - they are not all of the same quality, range, immunity to interference, etc. You have distance, building construction, and the biggie - interference.
At home, I use Apple routers, and have no issues with any of my WiFi enabled devices, computers, mobile devices, etc - even the lowly PeeCees. I have locations where I have Juniper Networks, as well as Aruba, and a few Netgears - all of them work as they should.
The cheaper routers, Linksys, D-Link, Seimens home units, and many other no name devices have caused issues of various kinds, and even connectivity.
I have no idea what Starbucks uses, but I always have a good connection, and I go there nearly every morning and get some work done, as well as play.
You could try changing channels, 2.4 to 5 Gigs, changing locations of the router. I have had to do all of these at one time or another over the many years that I have been a Network Engineer.
Good Luck - Cheers,
M.

Problem importing printer device type using RSTXSCRP

Hello,
Referring to sapnote 8928 I have extracted 6 printer device types that I wish to import into our dev box.
(note: I am trying this on our sandbox first).
However, the readme instructions for performing the import using RSTXSCRP are out of date or not complete for all SAP versions. For one they refer to a radio button that does not exist in our version of . (note: RSTXSCRP is also the ABAP called when doing the import from SPAD).
In addition, when attempting the import, I receive a popup box requesting a package. Since I have never used packages I am at a loss. There is no option to create a new one, as when I created transports back when I did ABAP.
I can save these as local objects, but they are then not transportable. I wish to be able to transport these through the landscape as they go to production. I really do not want to do a bunch of individual imports in every system, since I would need to do so for R3, BW, APO, etc.
So long into short: How do I import printer device types using either RSTXSCRP or SPAD and have them transportable?

Prabhu, Thank you, but this does not answer the question. It only repeats the information I already have.
How do I enter the package information when I do not have it, do not know how to get it or how to create a new one.
I have been out of directly working with SAP for a couple years and have only recently returned.
This is apparently such a basic thing it is not even in any of the documentation I can find.

I was able to print wirelessly from my 4S phone but now I can't. Where on my phone can I check its printing cababilities?

I can print sometimes from the HP 1100 printer but then I can't. The printer is printing the macbook documents wirelessly so it must be my phone. I can't find any information on my phone about its connectivity to printers.

Can be a bit convoluted as the phone doesn't actually have any drivers in the tradtional sense.
What it does is locates WiFi printers on the same network and connects over an adhoc connection.
The pint job is sent as an e-mail over the Wifi connection and the printer converts that e-mail PDF and sends that as a local print.
The point of break down is usually the Wifi connection and it may be necessary to reboot the printer to gain a stable link.
Also make sure your phone is actually connected to the Wifi network and not just the mobile network !
There are other print solutions you might want to try however these need a Mac/PC host machine.
On the Mac Pintopia adds the ability to print via the host to just about any USB connected printer and is imo more stable than airprint.the host must be running for this to work.
You can also try an app called We Print server that works on PC and Mac hosts and allows printing via the 3G network as well as local Wifi. Its very useful.
Finally you can make some adjustments and view the print job on the iOS device by starting a print then double clicking on the home button in the task bar you will see a new icon called Print Center where you can make minor adjustments and even cancel the job if you want,

How to print A3 from Xerox WCP 7337 printer via wireless connection?

I connected my Macbook v10.6.8 to Xerox WCP 7337 manually by typing the Ip address of the printer. I can see the printer, everything is fine but i want to print A3 from Tray 4. When choosing the paper size, he neither shows me A3 nor the Tray? I tried to manually type in the sizes (297mmx420mm) but it doesn´t work.he chooses from Tray 2 automatically, saying the paper size is wrong of course....
Can someone help me, please?

OK,
1. On the printer: Setup > Network > Reset network Defaults
2. On your PC, go to Start > Control Panel > Network and Sharing Center. Look for a wireless network that starts with 'hp" or "HP". Join it. There is no password. On the printer: Setup > Network > WIreless Network Test.
3. Now, in Start > Control Panel > Printers, Click the Add a printer
4. Select Local printer
5. Select Create a new port and select Standard TCP/IP Port and click Next button.
6. Under Device type, select TCP/IP Device. Under Hostname or IP address, enter the printer's host name (found on the printer's network configuration report the generated above). Click Next.
If you get a message about Additional Port Information Required, then the printer was not found using the host name. You can go back and retry or using the printer's IP address instead of the host name.
7. Select Hewlett-Packard from the list of manufacturers and select and select your printer model. Click Next.
If your printer model was not listed, then select Have Disk, browse the HP CD that came with your printer and select the first file that starts with hp and ends with inf. Click Open then OK. Select your printer model. Click Next.
8. If you are asked, use the currently installed driver.
9. It will ask for the Printer name -- enter a new name or use the existing one. This will be the name of the printer that you select from other applications.
10. You may be asked to share the printer. Make a choice and click Next.
11. The Print Test Page box appears. Go ahead and print it.
12. Click Finish.
