Test a New Output Device

[Former Member]

Hi,

I need to test a new background printer I created in R/3. I did a search and found the following steps in the documentations.

1. Call Spool Administration (transaction SPAD).

2. Choose Utilities ® For device types and then, depending on the text, Test data (ABAP) or Test data (SAPScript).

These utilities test printing from an ABAP report and from SAPscript and print out the character sets specified in the output device type.

3. If you want to perform the SAPscript test, enter the text name sapscript-druckertest and language EN or DE in the SAPscript text processing screen displayed.

However, I am unable to find Test data in SPAD. Am I missing something obvious?

Hi

For ABAP test, most of the fields are defaulted in the selection screen. For SAP Script test it invokes SO10.

Kind Regards
