Problem with printing out of sap to printerserver 2008 connected printer

[Former Member]

Hi there,

one of our customers is using a SAP ECC 6 System on a Windwos 2003 Server and is printing over a windows 2008 Printerserver to the printers.

We now have the issue, that there is a problem with lpd. The printer is reach- and pingable from SAP system, also on os-level the printer-server is reachable via telnet on port 515. But within printing, we get the following eror

Status: Incorrect (Failed to connect to LPD)

Job status: Completed

Area: Data transfer

Error: LPD response format invalid

Any idea?

thx for help

Hello Otto,

It seems the problem is in the connection the LPD on the destination host.

I would check the connection. Please, see note 10758 that can be helpful for this case.
