Problem in continuous Material Label Printing

Hi Experts,
          I am using SAP Script for Material Label Printing and Dot-matirx printer for printing.
          There are 6 labels getting printed on a Page. There is no problem in printing but what happens,
          whenever there is a new material getting printed, it skips the current page and resumes the
          printing from new page.
          Example. there are 8 labels for a Material-1 and 3 labels for Material-2. 6 labels for
          Material-1 would print on 1st Page, the rest 2 would print on 2nd page. Now the 3 remaining
          labels for Material-2 are getting printed on 3rd page which should get printed on 2nd Page itself
          as there is space for 4 more labels on 2nd page.
          Please help me out on this.
Regards,
Ravi.

Hi ,
every material there will be started an new sapscript (probably)
You will have to change your program that way that all materials and belonging data comes into 1 internal tab.
If you print this tab in 1 big loop (instead of a nested loop for everymaterial) everything will go fine.

Java problems with pitney bowes label printing

Have problem in label printing program while printing continuously

Dear Gurus,
   i am working on a label Printing program. my requirement is that to print label as below in one page continuously :
     Label 1      Label 2
     Label 3      Label 4
     Label 5      label 6
but i am unable to do , please tell me how to do this . i v already did like this:
     Label 1      Label 1
     Label 2      Label 2
     Label 3     label 3
please reply.

Imagine you have a list (itab1) with one field only (matnr). To achieve what you need, you must create an itab2, with 2 fields (matnr1 and matnr2).
In your print program do something like:
DATA: l_mod TYPE i,
      l_line TYPE i.
CLEAR: l_mod, l_line.
LOOP AT itab1 INTO wa1.
ADD 1 TO l_line.
l_mod = l_line MOD 2.
IF l_mod NE 0. "position1
    wa2-matnr1 = wa1-matnr.
ELSE. "position2
    wa2-matnr2 = wa1-matnr.
    APPEND wa2 TO itab2.
    CLEAR wa2.
ENDIF.
ENDLOOP.
Verify is this code should predict some exceptions (last line or something).
Edit: last line:
ENDLOOP.
IF l_mod NE 0. "position1 was not appended
APPEND wa2 TO itab2.
ENDIF.
Regards.

Problem printing horizontal text in smartform with zebra Z6M label printer

hello,
The situation is this:
There is a Z smartform wich prints a label to a zebra Z6M label printer with the text and barcodes vertically.
The form have a command in the main windows with the parameter: S_LZPL_SETUP '^FWR'
This label works fine, but the client want to change the form, they have told me to create a new smartform and print the info horizontally, using the same printer.
The tests i have done are the following:
create a smartform from ground and write a template text and a barcode with a new font of system barcodes. the bardoce is shown ok(it is shown horizontally), the problem is that the template text is shown vertically, as in the original smartform.
then i tried on another zebra ZM600 label printer, similar model, but not the same, and the smartform printed was ok (text and barcodes shown horizontally). So i think is a configuration setting problem, but i dont know where to search.
i have checked the label printer parameters in SPAD, but didnt find anything souspicios.
have you any idea?
thanks in advance.

See these if they be of any help.....
BARCODE:
goto smartform styles-> create a style-->
create a character format.
under standard settings give the bar code name
use this style in ur smartform. select the data field which u want to barcode print and assign the character format
Similarly
SAPSCRIPT
open the form and click the character format button and
repeat the step as above....
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/68/4a0d5b74110d44b1b88d9b6aa1315b/frameset.htm
Go to Character formate in your form.
create a new char formate with enable BAR code AND
you can give its type too.
To Create a Bar code prefix:
1) Go to T-code - SPAD -> Full Administration -> Click on Device Type -> Double click the device for which you wish to create the print control -> Click on Print Control tab ->Click on change mode -> Click the plus sign to add a row or prefix say SBP99 (Prefix must start with SBP) -> save you changes , it will ask for request -> create request and save
2) Now when you go to SE73 if you enter SBP00 for you device it will add the newly created Prefix
Create a character format C1.Assign a barcode to the character format.Check the check box for the barcode.
The place where you are using the field value use like this
<C1> &itab-field& </C1>.
You will get the field value in the form of barcode.
Which barcode printer are you using ? Can you download this file and see.
http://www.servopack.de/Files/HB/ZPLcommands.pdf.
It will give an idea about barcode commands.

Detailed information about SAP Barcodes
A barcode solution consists of the following:
a barcode printer
a barcode reader
a mobile data collection application/program
A barcode label is a special symbology to represent human readable information such as a material number or batch number
in machine readable format.
There are different symbologies for different applications and different industries. Luckily, you need not worry to much about that as the logistics supply chain has mostly standardized on 3 of 9 and 128 barcode symbologies - which all barcode readers support and which SAP support natively in it's printing protocols.
You can print barcodes from SAP by modifying an existing output form.
Behind every output form is a print program that collects all the data and then pass it to the form. The form contains the layout as well as the font, line and paragraph formats. These forms are designed using SAPScript (a very easy but frustratingly simplistic form format language) or SmartForms that is more of a graphical form design tool.
Barcodes are nothing more than a font definition and is part of the style sheet associated with a particular SAPScript form. The most important aspect is to place a parameter in the line of the form that points to the data element that you want to represent as barcode on the form, i.e. material number. Next you need to set the font for that parameter value to one of the supported barcode symbologies.
Creating Bar code:
) Go to T-code - SPAD -> Full Administration -> Click on Device Type -> Double click the device for which you wish to create the print control -> Click on Print Control tab ->Click on change mode -> Click the plus sign to add a row or prefix say SBP99 (Prefix must start with SBP) -> save you changes , it will ask for request -> create request and save
2) Now when you go to SE73 if you enter SBP00 for you device it will add the newly created Prefix
Create a character format C1.Assign a barcode to the character format.Check the check box for the barcode.
The place where you are using the field value use like this
<C1> &itab-field& </C1>.
You will get the field value in the form of barcode.

Label Printing Problem, Laserjet Professional p1566

I have this problem and it's getting me crazy.
I just bought a Laserjet Professional p1566 and I'am trying to print a Tico label (LP4W-3714, 5 collomns, 20 rows) for tubes in the lab. The problem is that when I print, the printer loses the exact position of the labels, i.e. in the vertical view, for the first rw it starts almost in the correct position, then for the last row it finishes in the 19th row instead of 20th. It means that it prints the whole page a little smaller than the actual size, so it prints everywhere, on the labels and in between as well. On horizontal aspect I have the same problem somehow. Before I had a Laserjet 1010 and it had the same problem of the vertical positioning, but not the horizontal.
Any help would be appreciated

Label printing problem from Business Object Infoview

Hi,
I got a problem with printing label (roll) from Zebera Label Printer. The label is designed in CR XI which works properly printing from Crystal Report XI and Zebera printer prints labels (more then one labels) without any trouble.
But the same label (report) does not get printed with all its pages (labels) from the same Zebera Label Printer using BO infoview. It prints only one page (1st label) and stops.
It seems that BO infoview takes all the labels converted in pdf as one page. Where I want that each label should be considered as single page.
Any idea?

Thanks Don
Yes the same report is published in the BOE.
From infoview, It prints on the screen eight (8) labels in two column on one A4 size page. While I want to have each label (W=3.9in x H 2.1in) as one page printed. So that, each label can be printed as one page on label printer.
I want to print as pdf format then printing on Label Printer.
Thanks
GJ

Having a print problem on a mailing label report using the merge modules.

Crystal Reports 2008 v 12.1.6.1116
when I print directly from Crystal Reports designer, the labels print correctly. If I print the report from our application software using the Crystal merge module, the top of page margin is not the same.
I am using Crystal Report 2008 Fix Pack 1.5 Merge Modules.
Any idea what might be causing this ? I do not see any settings in the CrystalReportViewer that would cause the top of page margin to change.
Note: We were using a previous version of Crystal Reports, version 11 using the merge modules and it worked just fine. After changing to the 2008 merge modules we are running into this problem.

Which Version of VS.NET you are using?
       VS 2008 v 9.0.30729.1 SP
. Which application you are developing desktop or web?
       Desktop
. Error messages you are facing?
        No error message, just the top of page margin is wrong
. Are you facing this error in development machine?
       The mailing label report works just fine printing directly from the Crystal Reports 2008 Design application. However is I try to print the exact same report using the CrystalReportViewer in the merge module, the top of page margin is different. Basically printing from the designer, there is some spacing at the top of the page, printing in the vb.net app the spacing at the time of is missing.
. Are you trying to deploy this application?
       Yes
. Operating System?
        The OS I have tried this on is XP Pro SP3 and also Vista Business SP1
. How are you deploying your application?
        We build a installshield setup to install the merge modules

Intermec PX4I Label Printing Problem

Hi,
We are facing issue while printing Bar Code Labels on Intermec PX4I label printer. While printing few labels could not print. When I tried to process the failed spool requests with the same settings again, the printer printed labels without any problem. After that the user was able to print the labels normally bust faces the smilar issue randomly. The user has to restart the printer to start the printer. We are facing similar issues on the other lable intermac lable printer as well.
When i checked the error log, I could see the below error:

Hello Abhijeet
As you rightly pointed out, inspite of the above error label printing is not impacted.
The problem is that print control SC400 is not maintained in transaction SPAD.
Please refer to OSS note 17559 for more information.

Label printing via material Number

Hi,
Is there a standard transaction and program that can be modified to print a label via material number?
The details to be printed on the label are:
Material Number and Barcode (based on material number)
Storage Bin
Material Description
Supplier name
Manufacturer part number
PO number and line item number
GRN date

For label printing, steps in transaction OMCF can be maintained.
Output Type WEE1 uses sap print program SAPM07DR.
Can the following data fields be retrieved from this program:
Material Number (MSEG-MATNR)
Bin Number (MSEG-LGPLA)
Material Description (Feed (MAKT-MATNR) Get (MAKT-MAKTX))
Supplier Name: Feed (MSEG-MBLNR) get (MSEG-EMLIF)
MSEG-EMLIF=LFA1-LIFNR
Feed (LFA1-LIFNR) get (LFA1-NAME1)
Supplier Material Number: Feed (EKPO-EBELN) get (EKPO-IDNLF)
PO number and Item: Feed (MSEG-MBLNR) get (MSEG-EBELN) and (MSEG-EBELP)
GRN Date: Feed (MKPF-MBLNR) get (MKPF-BLDAT)

Label Printing Problems

Just tried to print out one label from an already used label sheet (5159) via Pages and found it can't. Huh? Word can.
New Pages User.

What? Pages can't? That's not a good thing. Why doesn't Pages have a Label Printing facility? It's not rocket science.

CP1025NW label printing problem

Win XP SP3 32-bit. After page prints, the lower 4 rows of label text looks fuzzy and smears if rubbed with my thumb. Latest firmware (2011-08-26), latest driver (2.0.20110727) and selected "labels" as print media before printing. Why is this printer doing this? My old HP LJ 1012 printed the same labels just fine.

Dear Gajanan
please check SAP Marketplace. I belive your WWI version is quite old. IN the OSS number related to WWI you will find additional links to other OSS dealing with label printing on Zebra and other printers. A list of supported printesr is provided as well(if i remember correct).
Check e.g.
OSS notes in Global Label management

Label printing issues in Sapscript

We are struggling with building a new label for a finished good. On previous labels we used barcode BC_CD39. This new label requires a mix of same barcode and 2D barcode. One of the issues is BC_CD39 is it is too big at 13mm. So we want to use CD39__00 which is 5mm. We have gone into SPAD and SE73 and we think we have this set up to work on the two printers involved. We have also followed instructions for 2D in 197177 for adding new small font. We also have a logo for printing. When I print the printout does not have the smaller barcode, any text in smaller font and the logo is missing. I went into the spooler yesterday and these prints are getting an error (unknown print control should be output) that is talked about in note 17559. And when I look at the print preview I have a logo and different size fonts and smaller barcodes showing- basically all the stuff that is missing from the actual print. Has anyone else run into this and how have you resolved this? I am not sure what the spooler does not like. We are using a Printronix T5000e series printer.
The spooler error reads: character converter active when first problem occurred
Data was saved with character set 1100
Data will be converted to character set 9010 (synt = 9010)
and then it gives the OTF error mentioned above.
Our latest attempt is downloading tru fonts and getting them into the printer. Still no success and now the labels are not even printing.
Thanks for any help.
Susan

We continue with not being able to print this label correctly. If I do a screen shot I can see I have varying fonts on the label. But it completely ignores the various fonts on printing.
Our pirnter is a Printronix label printer.
My form is defined as landscape.
I get a spool error when printing that character set 1100 is being converted to character set 9010, which is custom for Printronix.
If we print on legal form vs the label form it prints fine.
We have tried different print drivers but nothng seems to get these fonts out.
We are using 5MM 3by9 barcodes.
This product is about to 'go live' and we really want to print this from SAP vs an external label software program. If we use an external label program separate from SAP it can print perfectly on same label printer.
We welcome any suggestions.
Susan

Inventory management - Label printing - How this will work

In Material Master under Plant data/Storage location 1 we have Label type and Label Form. How to make use of this?
We have in IMG under inventory management> messages> Print control> Label printing. how to configure to get desired number of labels to be printed?

Hemanth - I am having the same problem. No matter which data element I choose, number of labels printed are based on base unit of measure. I want to use E3 for label count based on order unit of measure but I cannot make this work.
Did you find an answer?
Thanks

Primera LX 400 Label Printer No Longer Working with Mountain Lion

Hi-
I upgraded my OS to Mountain Lion and most everything works OK except my Primera LX400 label printer. The error message I get when trying to install the driver is "Software for this printer isn't available from Apple. Contact the printer's manufacturer for the latest software."
I contacted Primera but I haven't received an answer yet. Anyone else solve this problem with Mountain Lion and Primera Printers?
For those that depend on the Primera printers, you might want to wait before upgrading.

For those with the same problem, Primera says they will have new drivers up 7/31/12:
http://www.primera.com/primera_printer_drivers.html
I decided to check a day early (7/30/12) and the driver for my LX400 is up and I was able to install and use it successfully.
