Hi,

You need to check printer configuration using SPAD. check device type, drivers, format, ipaddress, type of printer unix/windows, frontend. check printer is locked?

Hi,

The settings you have recommended are for front end printing & in that case printer should be default printer of user.

But here in our case printer is not in default list of user's.So we can't change its settings to front end printer.

Please suggest some alternative solution.

Thanks

Hi Joy,

Are you able to print any other documents from SAP?? If not then the current settings must work for PO also.

But here in our case printer is not in default list of user's.So we can't change its settings to front end printer.

On your users desktop at least one printer must be installed which marked as Default (For printing the documents from other applications like word,excel etc.) If it is then you can use front end printing.

Hi,

I have tried to print other things form SAP,i think those are getting printed as the spool & output request are in status Completed.

Moreover Printer MT2 is also used by some other users in whose machine MT2 is not a default printer.

So changing the spad settings of printe is not helpful.

Please suggest some alternative solution.

Thanks

Please use _default value.
