SNMP printer config error

[Former Member]

hie guys i am trying to configure front end printing on my machine . i have installed SAPSPRINT , SAPLPD.exe is running wel. i have set my ip address on the spool server host files , and in my host files i have set the spool server ip address. the printer can printer outside of SAP test print docs.

on Access method i have tried G: front end printing with control Tech

on host printer i have put _Default

my device type is not on the list its an Epson lx 300, so i chose SAPWIN:MS Windows driver Latin 1.

i have also tried Access method S:Print Using SAP protocol

Host Printer _Default

Spool server: pcldev_DEV_02

Device type: SAPWIN:MS Windows driver Latin 1.

ihave tried Access method F:Printing on front end computer

Host Printer _Default

Device type: SAPWIN:MS Windows driver Latin 1.

i have also varied my device types to EPSON versions but stil nothing.

i am running windows server 2003 on my laptop.

Use host spool method G, host printer __DEFAULT(underscore underscore DEFAULT). For Epson dot matrix(9 pin) printers use device type EPESCP9.

Printer Status not available. Printer host name/IP

Check access from the server to your laptop, no firewall blocking access ?

You need a SAP device driver for your printer, if you don't have that one, you need to choose a compatible printer.
