Hi,

I believe it is as easy as this:

start SPAD, put cursor in input field "Destination Host" (which is the name of the remote Windows  PC acting as printserver for printers with access method U/S)

ENTER

Now you should get a list of all print servers used for printers in this SAP system.

For a given print server, you can put cursor on the line and use the "where used" icon which gives you the list of SPAD printers which use this printserver as destination host.

Cheers,

I believe it is possible to extract the data from Tx SPAD by exporting them to an excel sheet. You can also use Tx SE16 and check the tables TSP03D and TSP03C for the field value PAMSSERVER.

Hi,

Thanks for the reply. I was trying with the table TSP03D and giving input for printer host and destination host but it was not pulling any data. I will try with your suggestion and let you know what is the outcome.

PAMSSERVER is equal to "server name" in Tx SE16 table output so you can sort the values according to your needs.

Hi,

I gave the value as MMNAWUE04 under server name but nothing came.

Is there an SAP system running on the host MMNAWUE04?

If yes the spool server will NOT be just the host name, it will contain hostname_<SID>_<Sys No>

Eg: MMNAWUE04_SID_00

Hi,

The SAP system is running under different host and the requirement for me is below

please check which all printers configured to use MMPNA02 printer server.

In that case you will need to list the output of all server under "server name" and match the one according to the correct server name.

I am sorry, I cannot offer anymore help than that. You need to poke around with these tables and Tx's to get the information you are looking for.

I would query the database table and find the information I am looking for.

If you have not found the output devices. Follow below path

SPAD - Spool servers (Display) - Select server name - Where used list and select Output devices.

It will display all the output devices/printers assigned under that print server.

SE16 - TSP03D table

PAMSSERVER - print server

PAPROSNAME - printer.

However you can do this by poking around SPAD/table entries
