Second page not printing on EPSON dot matrix

Hi Experts,
I have created a Smart Form which has 2 pages. I am able to see the Print Preview correctly of 2 pages, (Spool also shows correctly), but when I give the print on EPSON DOT MATRIX PRINTER, only one page is getting printed. Somewhere it seems that second page is getting overlapped on the first page. Its very strange behieveour. Dont know why its happening.
Any ideas ??

I have done it. Well issue was: \f command needs to be used when you create the custom page in the device type--->formats->your custom page----End of page.
In end of page simply write \f and printer will stop over writing the pages
Thanks.

Thanks in advance .

Dhaval..

Hi Raje,
Try to take the print in inkjet or laserjet printer
just for confirmation purpose .
if it prints in that and doesn't print in dot matrix then the problem is with the dot matrix.
In that case ask the basis guys to install the relevent device driver for that dot matrix printer( as normally they would have installed some generic driver ).
Hope this helps.

Friends need help desperate-- Second page not printing from the beginning

Hi Friends,
I have a large layout whose main-section is 8.5x20 (Width&height) which has 2 frames each having 2 repeating frames and about 20 fields in each repeating frame. When I run the report it shows the report right, but when I print, it prints only the first half since the report is long. When I change the property of the second frame of 'Page break before' to 'yes' it prints the second frame on the second page but print it at the same position as it printed on the first, and top of second page is all blank. How do I make to print from the beginning of the second page. Need your help.
Thanks
Joe.

Hello,
Most of the times, these problem are solved by "enclosing" the "Repeating frames" in frames with "Vertical Eleasticity" set to "Variable"

Check with the printer manufacturer that the matrix printer is Unicode compliant. If it is not, it will not work with Crystal Reports. If it is, make sure you have the latest printer driver updates.

Barcode printing on EPSON dot matrix

Hi,
We are printing barcode on Invoice using EPSON dot martrix. We created a new bar code using New Barcode technology through SE73 and created a ZPDF417 type .We taken a PDF417 symbology in New Barcode Technology.
While using this , the data is printing in Barcode. But while scanning the data is not reading.
The same print taking from HP Laser or HP DeskJet , it is printing and also reading while scanning.
Why i am facing problem with Dotmatrix.
If any suggestion pls give me.
Thanks in Advance,
Pavan.

Hi Pavan,
Dot matrix printers offer the lowest resolution of all available printers. Although dot matrix printer manufacturers claim resolutions as high as 360 dots per inch, the real resolution of most is only 60 dots per inch. Higher resolutions are simulated by overlapping consecutive dots. The reason that the true resolution is only 60 dots per inch is because the width of each dot is approximately 1/60th of an inch (16 mils). In order to print readable bar codes on a dot matrix printer, the Narrow Bar Width must never be less than the width of a printer dot as it is impossible for a dot matrix printer to print a line narrower than the width of a single dot. The larger the value that you choose for the Narrow Bar Width (within the allowable range for a specific symbology), the more readable your bar codes will be.
When you set up the Windows printer driver for your dot matrix printer you should select the highest dot resolution that the printer is capable of. If the driver has a Dithering option, you should also select "Line Art" or the finest dithering resolution that is supported. Some dot matrix drivers also allow you to set the intensity or darkness of the printing. If your printer supports this feature, you should set the intensity to the darkest level supported.
So i think in your case you need to tell the EPSON printer to use a minimum pitch-width in combination with UNI-DIRECTIONAL printing (Uni-directional escape character for EPSON = ESC U).
The pitch-width is something that must be setup standard for the printer (ask the system guys).
The UNI-DIRECTIONAL flag can be send prior (but part of) the actual barcode. The ESC charachter has ASCII value 027.
Most likely with UNI-DIRECTONAL print, your barcode will become readable.
Hope this helps you along.

Rob.

Printing of Graphics and Frames ,not coming properly in dot matrix printer

Hi Experts,
I have one smartform layout for Good receipt note,have used the Logo and Frames .when i am printing in the Laser printer.everything is k.when i am printing in Dot matrix Printer(OKI Microline 380 24pin printer).the Logo and Frames are missing,but I could able to see the Print Priview Properly.
Could you give any urgent solution.it is very urgent.
Thanks in advance.
regards,
hpp

I agree with you that printing of Logo & Framesare not very supportive in Dot Matrix Printer.
You can ask the Basis consultant to check & change the printer setting & may be it may work, as you have already mentioned that it is OK in Laser Printer. The Dot Matrix printer is currently unable to read the Logo & frame for printing.

Thanks for the follow up.
Barbara Brundage in the Photoshop Elements Forum will probably have the answer to your Photoshop Elements Epson scanner issue. Look into that Twain driver. She will give you good input on all this.
Also, see your other thread about Adobe telephone contact information. I have posted in that other thread also.

Hi Experts,

For example suppose there are three pages to be print 1/3, 2/3 , 3/3 , i get all the three pages in print privew as well as when i take its printout in laser printer i get all three pages as print, but when i am using dot matrix printer i get only the last page ie 3/3 as print.
Regards
Varun Sharma

Hai Varun,
If things are coming properly then its no more ABAP issue.
Need to check out with the BASIS team along with the IT / hardware department.
Just try to take print out on a other dotmatrix printer, if its somewhere close to you as usually they are heavy and large in size can't be moved.
Hope this helps,
Cheers,

Web report printed on a dot matrix printer

Dear all,
how can i design a report that is going to be printed on a dot matrix printer, i want to know these things:
1 - what i will have to change in the report it self.
2 - when i call the report from the form how the code will be.
3 - do i have to print the report on the browser then the user press print from the file menu of the browser.
please advice

1 - what i will have to change in the report it self.Since you will be printing to a dot matrix printer, you essentially need to design a character mode report and set the .prt file for printing purpose. Check in online help for how to make a character mode report.
2 - when i call the report from the form how the code >will be.On the otn site itself, you can find a white paper on reports 9i/forms integration. Please refer to this white paper on the example code.
3 - do i have to print the report on the browser then >the user press print from the file menu of the browser.You do not need to print the report from browser window and can directly tell the report to print the character mode output using your dot matrix printer. The command line you send from Forms will have destype=printer and desformat=<.prt file name>
Thanks
Rohit

Which driver to use to print to a dot matrix printer?

All-
Hi, we are using Adobe Output Designer 5.7 to create invoice templates. We use a custom application that uses Adobe Output Central Server (5.6) to create invoices and print them to a network printer. We are about to do a new release in Chile, which requires a dot matrix printer be used for printing due to gov't regulations. Does anyone know what kind of print driver could be used to effectively print to a dot matrix printer? It seems like all the drivers we have used don't work.
Additionally, we also tried using the .pdf driver in conjunction with the Web Output Pak, but unfortunately that result is just as bad. Does anyone know of a workaround to get Pdf's to work with a dot matrix printer? By googling, I found that we could try copying the .pdf output and pasting into Word, but I haven't tested this yet and it makes for a cumbersome process.
Thanks,
Andrew

Hi Andrew,
Unless you can convert the PDF to a text file, and print that, I doubt there is any way to send PDFs to a Dot Matix printer.
If you're on Windows then one way is to use the 'windows' driver option in your template to generate the output directory for the target printer - this allows non-supported printers to be used with Output Server,

Page not printing on Dot Matrix Printer

Dear Experts,
I had requirment to print the PO layout on a stationary which is bigger than a4 and bit lesser than a3
I found that page as 370(Width) and 295(hight). So according to it I created a new page format in SAP coz I didnt have any page format near to it. For setting up the new page format I did these steps:
1) Page Format
2) Format Types
3) Device Types.
All these are done. also I have attached my Z smartform in the NEU output type in NACE.
Now when I excute SF and try to print that its not getting triggering on the printer.
I have taken printer as LP01.
Please suggest. Where I am wrong.
-=Soni=-

Hi,
You need to assign the created page format to the device type used. Which device type is defined in output device LP01? Also if it is a device type with Line Printer Driver II, you also need to add the commands in the Printer Initialization action of the page format within the device type with commands to tell the printer the length of the page.
See the thread Re: DOT MATRIX PRINT is not coming correctly

Smartforms Printing not coming properly in dot matrix printer

Hi Gurus,
We have implemented invoice printout using smartforms and required to use the dot matrix printer for printing.
We are now facing the problem on the printout from dot matrix is different from the preview we get in the system. But the printout from Laser Jet is coming out correctly for the same smartforms.
We are using EPSON DLQ3000 and we configure the output device using EPESCP2 as the Device Type. The problem is font size of the print out is all printed as courier size 12, but there are different font sizes in the smartforms.
But when we use local printing (using SAPLPD), there is no problem, all different font size is printed.
If we using to same output device to print some sapscript, everything is working well. Font size will print accordingly to the preview of the sapscript.
Do you have any idea of the problem that we have. Thanks for your help.
Regards,
Lee Shi

Dear Lee,
Ideally the printout should come as it is shown in the preview.I remember once it had happened with me too.But in my case there is no problem with the settings at SAP level.When we checked we found the problem is with the printer cartridge.
We co-ordinated with the system administrator and n/w guys.They in turn change the cartridge and issue was fixed.
PS:In my case all SAP printout were coming properly except the smartforms.
Regards,
Ashutosh
