Performance issue of Barcode printing

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

I had designed a smartform using the new barcode printing technology. It works fine. The only problem is speed. I'm using se30 to analyze the performance of this smartform. If I remove the barcode, it takes less than 2 seconds for ABAP execution of this smartform. But if I enable barcode printing, the ABAP execution time is increased to 4.3 seconds. May I know if it's normal to take about 2 seconds to generate the barcode in smartform? Is there anyway I can improve the performance?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Xue,

I believe thats bcoz of barcode interface while sending barcoding data to printer.

Even I faced the same kind of problem, we have convinced the cleint that, when data is passing from one medium to another, it takes some delay.

Hi Sripal,

Thanks for your reply. Did you encounter the speed problem only when you try to print the form or you encounter the same problem even during previewing? For me, the barcode generation takes more than 2 seconds during previewing. I think it will take more time during real printing.

Hi Xue,

Yes you are right, while printing or previewing it comsumes bit more time.

Coz, it has to fetch extra data (Barcode) right?
