Cannot Open a new spool job

Hi,
I am tryiing to print the COBRA letters from the program RPUCOB02 and i am selecting uptodate radio button.
I am not facing the error when i select one employee and give the letter print.when i try to select more that one employee and click on letter generate buton it is throwing an error "cannot generate a new spool job"
It is working fine with the first employee.
when i went to into the debug mode in the Inlcude for COB02F03 of the program RPUCOB02 , there is open_form and it is dispalying the 104 exception " Error when opening layout set printing" for the second ee.
can anyone let me know how i can eliminate the error
Thanks.

Anjani & Raj,
This worked for me as a bandaid fix.... didnt do much reasearch... looks like after printing first employee the system is trying to create a new spool request again.... follwoing work around worked for me and may work for you too....
In the First component of the COBRA User Exit - ZXPCOU01
added the following peice of code... and it worked as the spool will be openend once...
DATA: lc_flag TYPE c.
IMPORT lc_flag = lc_flag FROM MEMORY ID 'COBRAUSER'.
IF lc_flag IS INITIAL.
lc_flag = 'X'.
EXPORT lc_flag = lc_flag TO MEMORY ID 'COBRAUSER'.
RAISE standard_procedure.
ELSE.
sy-subrc = 0.
ENDIF.

Getting OTF spool into internal table

Hi experts !
I am trying to get an OTF spool into an internal table (in order to send it to a web application).
I use FM CONVERT_OTFSPOOLJOB_2_PDF :
    PARAMETERS : p_spoolid LIKE tsp01-rqident.
    DATA : lt_numbytes TYPE i,
           lt_pdf TYPE TABLE OF tline.
    CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERT_OTFSPOOLJOB_2_PDF'
      EXPORTING
        src_spoolid              = p_spoolid
      IMPORTING
        pdf_bytecount            = lt_numbytes
      TABLES
        pdf                      = lt_pdf
      EXCEPTIONS
        err_no_otf_spooljob      = 1
        err_no_spooljob          = 2
        err_no_permission        = 3
        err_conv_not_possible    = 4
        err_bad_dstdevice        = 5
        user_cancelled           = 6
        err_spoolerror           = 7

        err_btcjob_open_failed   = 9
        err_btcjob_submit_failed = 10
        err_btcjob_close_failed = 11.
The table lt_pdf then contains some junk characters such as
TDFORMAT                       潆
TDLINE                         瑮吠䵉卅潮浲污䰠湡⁧剆਍启灹⁥䘯湯൴⼊畓
Any idea of how I can get that fixed ??
A strange thing is when I save it as a local file (for testing purpose) using GUI_DOWNLOAD, I have a nice readable PDF file ...
CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_DOWNLOAD'
EXPORTING
    BIN_FILESIZE                  = '10884'
    FILENAME                      = 'C:     est.pdf'
    FILETYPE                      = 'BIN'
TABLES
    DATA_TAB                      = lt_pdf
EXCEPTIONS
          FILE_WRITE_ERROR              = 1 ...
Thank you for your help !

Multiple invoices(spool jobs) download to multiple PDF files or 1 PDF file

Hello techies:
Has anyone written a program that takes the spool jobs of multiple Invoices from table TSP01 and then download these multiple invoices to multiple PDF files or to
One PDF file depending on selection screen?
This is an urgent request from client for archiving. Any help is highly appreciated !
Thanks so much

Hi Chris
Try printing from another browser, such as Firefox. There have been issues between eBay's coding practices and how Safari interprets them.

Max limit on size of PDF when converting from OTF spool to PDF

I have a scenario where I need to process as many OTF spool files into one PDF file, and then send this PDF as a ZIP file in an email attachment.
Is there a limit on the size of PDF that ABAP code can handle?
Also, what are the ABAP steps to accomplish this.
Thank you,

Combine Spool Job Contents ..

Hello Experts,
I'm hoping someone can help with this. I have a requirement to create adobe print forms for a set amount of employees. The problem I'm having is that I can get the spool job to create. In side the spool job, it is broken into parts. The pdf form created is 8 pages for one employee. If I print 5 employees, the spool job will have 40 pages, but the job is split into 5 segments of 8 pages. The issue I'm having is that I need to get all 40 pages in one file to send to a printer. I've tried a number of things but I can't seem to get the spool job to print to pdf on a local machine. The only alternative I can find is to get the segments of the spool job into one big file.
Does anyone have any experience with this? Points will be awarded for any help.
Thanks,
Meezy

Hi,
i have the same problem than the original poster. I call FP_JOB_OPEN/FP_JOB_CLOSE only once, and only one spool job is created. But inside this job there are several parts and each part is an own pdf document. It is possible to read each part/file separately, but i found no possibility to get one big pdf with all parts.
Does anybody have an idea how to solve this?

Cancel the print spooler jobs

Can i delete the Print spooler jobs through command prompt or through any program with out stopping printspooler services.

Hello, I think you can not delete spooler jobs without stop spooller service. Otherwise, If you try to delete queue, you will see "This files using another software etc." error message. You can try below cmd.
R.
net stop spooler
DEL %systemroot%\system32\spool\printers\*.shd
DEL %systemroot%\system32\spool\printers\*.spl
net start spooler

Problem with characters Converting OTF Spool to PDF

Hello All,
Im working on ECC6.0 system. I have a Z report where it will take spool number and mail ID as input.
It will check wheter the spool is of type OTF of ABAP List, according to that it will use the FMs ONVERT_OTFSPOOLJOB_2_PDF & CONVERT_ABAPSPOOLJOB_2_PDF.
Now it will download the PDF internal table data into a file using OPEN DATA SET statement as shown below.
OPEN DATASET gv_dsn FOR OUTPUT IN BINARY MODE.
*Download the file to application server
LOOP AT gt_pdf_output.
    TRANSFER gt_pdf_output TO gv_dsn.
ENDLOOP.
CLOSE DATASET gv_dsn.
and it will ZIP the PDF as shown below.
* open the file from application server for zipping.
OPEN DATASET gv_dsn FOR INPUT IN BINARY MODE.
READ DATASET gv_dsn INTO lv_content.
CLOSE DATASET gv_dsn.
CREATE OBJECT go_zip.
go_zip->add( name = gv_file content = lv_content ).
gv_zip_content    = go_zip->save( ).
* Convert the xstring content to binary
CALL FUNCTION 'SCMS_XSTRING_TO_BINARY'
    EXPORTING
      buffer        = gv_zip_content
    IMPORTING
      output_length = gv_file_length
    TABLES
      binary_tab    = gt_data.
After that the ZIP file conataining the PDF will be sent as an attachement to the mail ID given as input.
Now the problem is some characters of Czech are not coming properly when the attachement is opend once the mail is received. Can any one tell where the problem is and solution.
Im getting the message "Can not extract the embedded front 'CourierNewL2'. Some characters may not display or print correctly." while opening the PDF in the ZIP attachment.
Thank you.

Sasidhar Reddy Matli.

HP P1606dn network printer spools jobs but won't print without a "form feed"

I recently changed by HP P1606dn printer from a USB connection to my HP desktop running Windows 7 (64bit) to a network connection. The objective was to allow my Mac (OS 10.6.8) to print to this printers as well via the network.
When I first installed the printer it worked fine. Then I installed the HP drivers on the Mac, and it too worked fine and continues to work fine. However, my Windows 8 desktop stopped printing. It appears to spool the print jobs correctly and they show up in the queue as actively printing. However, the only way to get them out is to go over to the printer and press the "form feed" button (button showing page with down arrow). Then the HP test page will come out followed by the desired print job.
I've tried disabling "bi-directional support" in the "ports" tab under "printer properties" but that did not help.
Any helpful advice appreciated!
Brent

Did you connect the USB cable when doing the firmware update?
