Printer issue

Hi All

I have made changes with the printer in VV32 for an output type, but when the user creates an invoice its still routed to the old printer, Is there any where else I need to make the changes.

Please help

Good Afternoon,

I think the transaction which you need to use is VP01. This allows you

to set the print parameters for sales activities, sales and billing.

It may be helpful to you to know the logic which determines the printer

that is used for output on the system. This is as follows :

1. the system will first check the output device specified in output

record VV12. The setting here has most priority.

2. system will read the setting in output type customizing (trx V/30)

double click the corresponding output type, find field "print

parameter". Please see F1 help for this field.

3. According to the setting in point 2, system will choose output

device either specified in trxn VP01 or trxn SU3.

Also, please be aware that if output is entered manually, then the

printer is not defaulted. This is correct logic in standard system.

Print parameters are only defaulted when the output is determined by

the system automatically.

I hope you find this information very helpful and hopefully it will solve your problem.

Hi ,

Default printer can be set into "Communication'.

Goto Invoice and Select the output type and go to Communication .

Maintain output device as ( to be set as default printer ). Also maintain Number of messages ( number of copies to be printed once the output is isued) .

In addition to this activate print immediately and Release after output.

Also do following

Pl. check the default printer setting.

Check your user Profile Click System --- User Profile_own data

Go to Defaults and check Output Device (use the default printer)

Select the output type in the delivery and go to communication and check Output Device (use the default printer)
