Hi, I'm trying to configure a shared printer in my ERP . This printer is not a network printer. It is connected directly to a regular computer in my network
It's actually shared and I even added "EVERYONE" in security tab with full permision
The path for the printer is \\172.16.190.56\hp1102
I configure a device in spad in this way
HOST PRINTER: \\172.16.190.56\hp1102
destination host : \\172.16.190.56\
host spool access method: U
device type: HPLJ5
spool server: <ERP SERVER>_<SID>_00
But when I save the printer I get this message Unable to reach the remote host spool system
Printer is online, I am able to print from my computer but from ERP is not possible
SP02 shows "F5" status
any idea?
Hi Juan,
Could you please clear doubts mentioned below...
Is the sap server (OS) and the printer in same network? If not than they both have to be in same network or should be able to reach each other.
Or is it you wish to print to the printer that is connected to your desktop?

Hi Juan,
I think you can achieve the printing in 2 ways.
1. In SPAD define a local pritner with G access method and host printer as __DEFAULT. Now set the printer as default in control panel for your PC or the PC's in the same network.
2. In SPAD define a the printer with access method S/U and JUST mention the IP address excluding '\\' i.e. 172.16.190.56 instead of \\172.16.190.56\

Hi Juan
You can use the SAP access S method to configure the printer in your ERP system.From this every can share the printouts
Kindly follow the steps
1. On Printer connected computer, Install the SAPSPrint service. Kindly refer the SCN link
