Barcode cannot be printed

[Former Member]

Dear Expert,

I have situation where the barcode printer (intermec PF8t) could not produce barcode, while other printer can. FYI both printers are LOCL (local printer) using SWIN SAPlpd/SAPWIN driver 3.0. Any body can tell me what is going on? Thanks

Best regards,

Hi Mahnansa

For Barcode printing better u can use the Sap Sprint method S,

1. First configure the printer any one of the Pc or Server( windows os). in that just install the Saps-print server which is available in the service market place.

2. In SAP T code SPAD setting Device type :EPESCP,

Host Spool Access method - S Print Using SAP Protocol

Host Printer name - ( In which pc running Sap S print server one that printer name)

Destination host - (Ip address or DNS Name for the PC or Server in which the SAP S print server running)

Try this

Hello

There is also the option to use the barcode.dll with a front-end print device - see 1557674 Overview of bar code printing from SAP

Access Method

(1) Choose "S: Print Using SAP Protocol" if a print server with SAPlpd or SAPsprint is used to print barcodes.

(2) Choose "F: Printing on Frontend Computer" if SAPlpd and SAP GUI are used together to print barcodes, SAP GUI sends print job to SAPlpd, SAPlpd is started automatically and forwards the print data stream to the Windows print manager.

(3) Choose "G: Frontend Printing with Control Tech", only SAP GUI is involved in printing barcodes, SAPlpd is not used.
