Hi,

Go to Tcode SPAD->Full administration->Device types->Display->Device type-->create.

Even check for the note 8928 which contains the related information.

Hi Anil,

No need to go in DEV then send the transport. Pls login in in your production server type SPAD tcode and create new printer in device type.

If you have not configure earlier, pls see existing pringer setting in the same window and you can configure same to this printer also. This is very small job. In case you face any problem in this case pls provide the version so that we can send the documentation.
