Smartform Printing Multiple Tray issue

[vijay_kumar134]

Hi Experts,

I have an issue for printing smartforms.

If my PO form can have more than 1 page, (2 or more) i need to be printed the first page on Tray 02 and second and other pages on Tray 03.

Already i have configured OUTPUT OPTION & Resource name also. but its printing on same tray.

Please guide me any other settings needs to be done reagarding this?

Thanks.

VJ.

Perhaps you could tell us which SAP device type you are using? Some of them do not have the print controls to access multiple trays. 

It is a rather trivial thing to add additional print controls to a (copy of a standard SAP) device type, if you know the printer control sequences.

Hi Andrew,

Thanks for your response.

If i declared Page01 - TRY02

                 Page02 - TRY03  in the smart form resource name,

Result :  Page03 also printing in the Tray 02.   - Wrong    ( This is my issue)

But If i declared Page01 - TRY03  Page02 - TRY02  in the smart form resource name,

Result is Page01 printing in the Tray 03 and Page02 printing in the Tray 02  - Perfectly working.

Thanks.

Vijay.

Hi Vijay,

you have to clear the option again.

Just have a look at this sample

Page	TRAY	Output
First	TRY01	TRY01
SECOND	TRY03	TRY03
THIRD	nothing added	TRY03 is remained from page SECOND
FOURTH	TRY02	TRY02
FIFTH	nothing added	TRY02 is remained from page FOURTH
SIXTH	nothing added	TRY02 is remained from page FOURTH
and so on	nothing added	TRY02 is remained from page FOURTH

That means, you need to clear the option or set the default option by your own.

You can add a page and set the tray into it or you put a variable there and set it through a coding node

Hello,

The Note 189618 explains how the tray selection is set for Smartforms.

For each page of the form, the paper resource can be specified within
the form from transaction smartforms.

eg: /nsmartforms -> <Form Name> -> Change -> FIRST First Page
-> Resource Name -> eg: 'TRY02'

If all of above are correct, you may also check the device type used and see if it contains
the correct command in 'Print controls' for TRY01, TRY02, TRY03 etc.

Regards,

Wen Peng

hi Vijay,

You need to check the printer in the SPAD -- This is normal a thing your basis-guys have to do, because there is more than just one option there.

You havbe to check if the driver is supporting tray-specific things, if the printserver is well configurated and stuff like that.

You can easily test the printer, if it is supporting different trays with the SO10-Text

"SAPSCRIPT-TRAYTEST"... just mark the different trays and print the text.

If this text work, there might be something wrong with your configuration in the form. If this is not printed in a good way, talk to your basis-guys and they will need to act there.
