error in the Windows printer drivers of HP
Solution
This HP printing issue is fixed in BJ 1100 driver version Armstrong
R233-L, in BJ990, in BJ 2550, and in BJ4050.
HP standard print drivers are located at HP Website :
http://www.hp.com/country/us/en/support.html?pageDisplay=drivers
alternative :
Point&Print drivers (aka wizard drivers) for several printer models can
be found here:
http://www.hp.com/cgi-bin/pond/pnp/
Please be so kind and give us some feedback about the results.
If the printer drivers didn't fix your problem, please be so kind and
send us the following information:
1. printer model
2. a detailed description of the issue
3. steps to reproduce (ie. Which transaction are they printing from?
Can it be reproduced from SE78 with the logo only - if logo related,
etc.)
4. which device type is used. In case of SAPwin, see below
5. a copy of the intermediate saplpd output files
To capture the SAPlpd files, please run SAPlpd from the command prompt
BEFORE you start the print job. This is how to do it: at the command
prompt, type "saplpd.exe -k" (without the quotation marks). When you
print, two files will be created. You can find them in the directory
where SAPlpd runs. On my PC, this is C:\Program
Page 2
Files\SAP\FrontEnd\SAPgui\SAPlpd The two files will have the same name
except for the ".slp" extension of one of them.
6. a hardcopy example of the print out
7. if the issue is logo related, a copy of the logo for testing
8. a copy of the printer's configuration and menu pages
The printer's configuration and menu pages, We need the test pages from
the printer which will tell us which firmware it has, which settings are
used on the printer etc., not the screenshots from the SAP device setup.
If you use SAPwin:
9. which Windows version is used and which SP
10. which driver - pcl5/pcl6/PostScript, and which version?
The version number can be found here: Open the printers folder, open the
printer properties, click the "About" tab (all the way to the right). At
the top of the next screen you will see something like
60.xxxx.xxxx.xxxx. This is the driver version number. If you want to add
more information, a driver test page will show the version numbers of
the different files used.
11. a copy of the intermediate saplpd output
To capture the SAPlpd files, please run SAPlpd from the command prompt
BEFORE you start the print job. This is how to do it: at the command
prompt, type "saplpd.exe -k" (without the quotation marks). When you
print, two files will be created. You can find them in the directory
where SAPlpd runs. On my PC, this is C:\Program
Files\SAP\FrontEnd\SAPgui\SAPlpd The two files will have the same name
except for the ".slp" extension of one of them.
12. a print-to-file from the Windows system
13. Print out of a testpage (will contain some information about the
file versions installed as well as whether it is PCL or PostSript

It is a printer issue ( printer driver / saplpd / or the device types used in SAPD for the printer ).
If you are printing on an HP Deskjet , check OSS 683605.
You can also try printing from some other PC as in local printing SAPLPD of the PC is used . Try printing on other printer as well if possible.
Cheers

Hi,
For me also this happened sometimes. Can you try uploading the image again and try the printout with another user.
Thanks
Vinod
