Dear Experts ,

My problem is one functional guy trying to print a document in sap level, at that time spool request is successfully completed but printer doesn't give any prints, after we download that document into local system from sap then we tried to take a print, it is printed at same printer

This is my problem please solve my issue

Hi,

In that case the problem could be related with the printer drivers. Read carefully SAP note 8928 (List of supported printers/device types) and ensure your printer is listed there.

Hi,

This error is most of times linked with the usage of method 'F' for frontend printing. For frontend printing, access method 'G' should be used instead. See SAP note 821519 for more details.

See also note 128105 Frontend printing (collective note)

Take also into account that for server-based printing via access method 'S' or 'U', SAPSprint should be used instead of SAPLPD. Note 894444 has all the details and this is valid for ALL Releases.

For front end printing , pls mention Host Spool Access Method : F and Host printer : __Default

and give Spool access in Su01 , click Defaults and mention the output device to user .

HI,

Your question is quite confusing. In SPAD if you have configured it as front end printer then its printed as user's machine. If this is defined in your SAP system the print will be from the server.

Can you give some more info on your problem?

Hi,

In SAP level the print is complete or not? i mean when you given the print SP01 the spool request is completing or any states?

If completed then check with OS level spool or OS level output process.

Thanks and Regards,
