My server has data of all the entries I see in SPAD, along with the server names as per his requirement..

need to get the printer name say ef04 or pi09 etc.. and hit this table as name = ef04 and pick pamsserver for the server name

IF NOT sy-batch = abap_true.

CALL FUNCTION 'RSPO_FRONTEND_PRINTERS_FOR_DEV'

EXPORTING

device = 'LOCL'

IMPORTING

prdefault = lf_default_printer

EXCEPTIONS

NO_LIST

LIST_TRUNCATED

NAME_NOT_FOUND

OTHERS = 99.
