SMARTFORMS - set printer device

Former Member — Thu, 18 May 2006 10:14:00 GMT

Hi,

I have a SMARTFORM which is always going to be output on the same printer regardless of who is printing it and their default printer.

I have seen a field on the form attributes for setting the output device - but it cannot be edited !

Any ideas ?

Cheers

Colin.

Hai Colin

CALL FUNCTION 'GET_PRINT_PARAMETERS'

EXPORTING MODE = 'BATCH'

REPORT = 'MYREPORT'

IMPORTING OUT_PARAMETERS = PARAMS

VALID = VALID.

look into this link

You need to set the USER_SETTINGS perameter in your SmartForm to SPACE

Thanks & regards

Hi,

smartform fm ,you have options

CONTROL_PARAMETERS you have DEvice field you can set that with your own device.

and also USER_SETTINGS = ' '. if you don't want users default printer. if you want users printer then USER_SETTINGS = 'X'.

Hi Colin,

Set CONTROL_PARAMETER-NO_DIALOG = 'X'. and

CONTROL_PARAMETERS-DEVICE = Printer_Name or

OUTPUT_OPTIONS-TDPRINTER = Printer_name, it will always go to that pritner...

Hi,

These are all no good. It is a SAP standard class I am using for output.

I need to be able to change it in the actual SMARTFORM itself.

Cheers
