Problem with smartforms barcode printing

Hi,
In my smartforms i use a simply standard barcode (CD39__00)
for delivery number; but when i print there is no barcode, there is the dlivery number as number.
I'm in SAP ECC 6.0 so with the new barcode printing.
Where is the problem?
Thanks a lot.
Matteo

Hi - Sometimes if the height of bar code is small, then it prints the number instead of barcode. So please try to copy tht barcode into "Z" from se73 transaction and increase the height and then assign the new barcode to ur smartform. Doing this you will be getting the barcode printed on it.
Thanks
Arun Kumar
Ok, i create a new bar code bigger than the first one and now it's printed.
Thanks lot.

Hi Vishnu,
Above you have the following commands:
set line spacing 6 LPI
\e\0x32
set page length 86 lines
\e\0x43\0x46
46 HEX = 70
So the above settings mean 70 lines at 6 LPI = 11.66 inches.
So is the paper length 11.66 inches? If not, you should adjust the settings accordingly.

Aidan

Problem with Photoshop Elements Printing

I have been using Photoshop Elements for a couple of years now and know it pretty well. Today while attempting to print, a strange problem came up: After going through the protocol to make a print, just before the image prints PE does a very fast auto correction that basically ruins all the color correction I have made on the image. How do I disable this function?

Hi and thanks for your reply. I checked the settings under "Print", "More Options", then "Color Management" and it only has "Print Space", none of the three options that you said I should have. Am I looking in the wrong place?

Check your color management by clicking More Options in the print dialog There are basically three options:1) Printer Manages Color2) Elements Manages color3) No color Management Make sure everything is consistent e.g. if you choose Elements manages color make sure color management is switched off in the print driver.

Cannot print due to a problem with the current printer

Cannot print (anymore) due to a problem with the current printer is the message I get every time I try to print something out. I tried to reinstall the printer's software, I changed the cables, but nothing happened. It seems to be something related to the printer setup utility. Any big idea on how to solve this? I was printing without problems until this afternoon. I have a HP Laserjet 1022 and sometimes I use Adobe Acrobat Writer. None is currently working.
Thanks for any help.

Problem with the MVMapView.print(printMapDiv,) function.

Hello,
I have a problem with the MVMapView.print(printMapDiv,) function.
My FOIs are displayed correct on the screen but on the printed letter
the stroke(border) color and the labels of a circle are not displayed.
the fois have a custom style:
var xmlDef = '<svg width="1in" height="1in">'+
'<g class="marker" '+
'style="width:40;height:40;stroke:0xff0000;fill:0x00ff00;stroke-width:1.5">'+
'<circle r="20"/>'+
'</g>'+
'</svg>';
markerStyle = new MVXMLStyle("my_vector_icon_" + i + '_' + j, xmlDef)
and are created like this:
v_result = new MVFOI(p_geofeature.foiId, p_geofeature.foiGeomertyObject, markerStyle, null, 30, 30);
v_result.setHTMLElement('1',0,0);
Browser: I can see the map with a green circle, a red border and '1' as a label on
top of the Circle.
Printed Letter: I see the map with the green circle but no red border Color and no label.
The implmentation of the printing function uses the same techique like the "Oracle Maps Tutorial"
It is a javascript function called through a href link:
function mapPrint()
var a=document.getElementById("printmap");
global_gdi.mapviewer.mapview.print(a);
Version is Ver11_1_1_5_B110527
Does anbody know how to print the map properly including the contents of the
MVFOI class set trough setHTMLElement function?
Greetings
Andre

Thanks for your reply but it is not working and i can prove that.
I have a small example based on the mapviewer print tutorial. To run it you need a
mapviewer installation and copy the text into a html file. In the browser you can see
a green point with a red border and red label text on a map.
If you use the print button everything except the label text will be printed.
I think this is a mapviewer css-api bug.

Printing problem with script barcode

hi ,
     i hav inserted a barcode for a particular window field. while giving print preview it is showing barcode.
     after taking print, it is not displaying the barcode.
   thank u all in advance,
balu.

Hello,
In general, if you want to print a barcode, somebody must draw the bars
of the barcode to get a correct print. So there are four possible ways to
print barcodes from SAP:
1. Print e.g. via a Barcode DIMM/SIMM
To use this way, the printer must be able to print barcodes by itself so it
needs e.g. a special barcode SIMM/DIMM module to print the barcodes.
ie: HP printers do not contain barcode fonts by default so a DIMM module
with the fonts must be installed. The print works as follows:
The SAP sends a simple printer escape sequence to the printer, which activates
the barcode printing in the printer. Then the SAP sends the barcode number and
finally it sends a printer escape sequence, which switches the printer back to
normal printing. So in this way the bars of the barcode are created in the printer
(and you only see a dummy barcode in the print preview).
Please see the following Note about the sequences for Jetcaps BarDIMM used
for printing barcodes on HP Laserjet printers:
45643 Barcode control sequences for JetCAPS/Jetmobile BarDIMM
The correct BarDIMM modules for different HP printer models can be seen on
the JetMobile website at the URL below:
http://www.jetmobile.com/products/SJ_BD.htm
2. Print via a barcode.dll
If your printer doesn't have a barcode DIMM, it cannot create the bars of
the barcode itself. So this must be done elsewhere. One possibility is that
you print via a Windows system, SAPSprint or SAPLPD, device type SAPWIN and
a barcode.dll.
ie: Your printer is connected to a Windows system that runs the SAPSprint or SAPLPD program
If you print via device type SAPWIN, the creation of the print data is done in the Windows.
So the Windows may create a graphic, which contains the bars of the barcode, and send this
graphic to the printer.
The job to create the barcode graphic is done by the barcode.dll. So it is only needed, if
you want to print this way please see the following note for more information:
14561 Printing barcodes via SAPLPD / Barcode DLL
3. New barcode technology
If your printer doesn't have a barcode DIMM and if you don't want to use a barcode.dll,
you may use the new barcode technology, which is described in the SAP notes 645158 and 430887.
However this is only possible when printing from Smartforms.
In this way SAP itself creates a picture, which contains the bars of the barcode. This picture
is sent to the printer. One important requirement when you print the barcode via a Smartform
is that you have at least release 46C.
4. Use of a barcode font
There are some font files (e.g. Windows TTF files), which contains bars instead of characters.
So if you use these font files, the bars of the barcode are printed instead of a text.
You may buy such a font file, install it under Windows and use it via device type SAPWIN
according to note 48803. Since release 46C these files can also be uploaded into the SAP and
used via other device types.
Hope this information helps you resolve the issue.

David

Problem with DataMatrix barcode

Hi,
I am using a xdp form with DataMatrix barcode in designer 7.1. I am rendering the xdp as pdf in livecycle workbench. The problem is the barcode is working properly in desinger, but in the rendered pdf its not working, Can anyone identify which might be the cause of this problem.
Thanks in advance,
Kruthi

There are typically two reasons why a Barcode does not render on a form:
The barcode has exceeded it's capacity. If the barcode is designed to hold 1,000 characters (for example) and the .rawValue is 1,100 characters then the barcode will gray-out in Reader 7.x or will simply disappear with Reader 8.x and higher. In this case you need to adjust your code so that the capacity is not exceeded. Try reducing the number of fields included in the data and DO NOT use XML, use tab-delimited data capture and convert this to XML when you decode the data. You can also add additional barcodes to your form. You are not limited to a single barcode on your form.
You are filling out the fill-and-print PDF barcoded form within the free Adobe Reader and have not properly licensed the technology. If your users are filling in your barcoded form using the free Adobe Reader you need to license Adobe LiveCycle Barcoded Forms from Adobe. If you do not the barcodes will disappear in Reader 8.x and higher.
This session is related to PDF417 but the concepts are the same when looking at barcode capacity: http://my.adobe.acrobat.com/barcodedformselearningpdf417bestpractices/
This session is for a prior version of Reader Extensions but will show you how a Barcoded Form should be properly licensed: http://my.adobe.acrobat.com/barcodedformsandreaderextensions/

Problem with a Zebra Printer TLP 2844

Hi all
We have a problem with a Zebra TLP 2844 barcode printer. I can´t print any document(common documents or barcode levels Sapscript).
I read and applied the note: "Note 179534 - Label printing with Zebra printers (SAPscript)" without sucesfully (and import ZLB_ZEB2 and zlb_ZEB non sap native drivers)
1) printer is attached to pc-windows host with sapsprint and is shared resource
2) from R/3, access method is S
namepcprinter and Device Type: ZLB_ZEB2
3) From R/3, the spool request for Zebra are finished ok but they aren´t printed
4) if connect a HP printer using this procedure, then the document are printed ok.
The documents sending from Windows (words,txt docs) are printed ok !!!
There aren´t errors for sapsprint log.
Does anyone help me, is this model of "Zebra" compatible for SAP?
Regards,
Daniel

Marcelo,
I would like to know which driver SAP is suggesting to use for your printer? Are you using that one?
Also, is the printer driver is properly installed?
Are you able to see the print overview?
Please check if the proper printer driver is installed. You can get an idea about the drivers from below link:

Sujit.

Problem in Smartforms table printing

Hi Friends
I have a weird problem with printing the smartforms table.
The problem is as follows.
Suppose there are 10 rows (entries/records) in the table and the page can accomodate only first 5 rows, it automatically overflows into the next page. Now typically the table should print the next 5 entries. But, instead, only the 6th row is printed and the rest 4 rows are not printed.
Please advice.
Thanks
sam.

This is due to some technical reason in the ABAP. If you are passing the sorted table, you have to declare it as already sorted.
please read this
If in the form interface a tables was passed that was sorted before by the application, and it is now processed in the loop of a data node, you must again list the sort fields explicitly and, in addition, mark the checkbox "already sorted".
Due to technical reasons in ABAP, it is not possible to automtically pass the sort fields.

Smartforms barcode printing

thanks to all. i have created a barcode in SE73 in new format. but i did not see any option to specify width and height for that barcode. i have to use a width of 40mm and height of 10mm. but i am getting 50/10 mm as default. please advise me how to specify width and height for barcode in new format of SE73.

Hi
check this
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.

Problem with NIReport.llb\Print HTML Report using IE.vi on different machines

We have 5 machines here in our workgroup which have the same state regarding security patches and other system updates. We recently found out that there is a problem with the NIReport.llb\Print HTML Report using IE.vi on the different machines.
If I would open the VI on MachineA the control could be loaded. If I would open the VI on MachineB the control could be loaded. If I would copy the VI from MachineB to MachineA and open the VI the control could not be loaded. If I would copy the VI from MachineA to MachineB and open the VI on MachineB the control could be loaded. MachineB could load the version from MachineA and MachineB but on MachineA only the own version will load. I have seen that both versions have the same GUID for the Microsoft Webbrowser but are different in some other aereas.
Since printing HTML Reports is part of the application which will be distributed as application I want to know if someone else have seen such a behaviour or has got problems distributing an application.
Also I want to know which additional information is stored in an Active-X container about the control beside the GUID.
We have Win XP Prof SP2 with MS IE 6.0.2900.2180 on all machines in the workgroup.

Hi Tom,
this is the VI <vi.lib>\Utillitiy\NIReport.llb\Print HTML Report using IE.vi copied from a machine that can load and run the VI and it will print. On this machine the control in the VI is white.
This VI will give the "Control could not be loaded" message on my machine.
The file shdocvw.dll is 2006-10-23 16:18 size 1.460 KB and I verifyed that both machines have the same version of this file.

Problems with stopped HP Print Jobs on Mac OS 10.5.

I have several Mac Stations with different Mac OS X versions (Mac OS X 10.5-10.7) and bought 2 HP Laser Printers:
- HP LaserJet Pro 400 M401dw
- HP LaserJet Pro 200 M276nw
After installing the HP Driver SW on all Mac Stations I changed then on the Printers the dynamic IP address to static ones. The printing didnt work anymore from the Mac Stations. I re-installed all Driver SW on every Mac Station. Then Printing worked on every Mac, except only on the Mac OS X 10.5. Station the Print Jobs were always stopped after any Print attempt.
This appeared on the Mac OS X 10.5. Machine in the Printer Spooler Job Message Window and within the error_log File content:
- can't create PictWPSDoc from `/private/var/spool/cups/xxx'.ERROR during execution of pictwpstops. Error number -9783
As it seems like problems existed with file permissions I ran a complete Disk Utility File Permission Repair. Then another reinstall of the HP Driver Packages. - Still the same failures with stopping Print Jobs.
Then I read the README file of the Installation Package. And the quite simple solution was:
DE-INSTALL the HP Driver SW FIRST (with the HP Deinstallator), BEFORE RE-INSTALLING the HP Driver SW again.
So I did this, then no Print Jobs were stopped anymore and both Printer are happily printing.
The conclusion is, I guess, Mac 10.6..10.7 does not have problem with multiple re-installation of the HP driver SW. Only the Mac OS 10.5. did NOT work anymore after another reinstall of the Driver SW Package, and without de-installing it properly. The bottom line is to de-install the driver SW (and maybe disk repair) properly BEFORE another insallation wants to be done. This however solved my printing problems on the Mac OS X 10.5. machine.
