hi,

You need to give only the printer name and no of copies you want..if u dont know the printer name you can type in LOCL which detects your local printer and prints it...

<i>What system variable i need to use to trigger from here.</i>

Not sure what you mean by this, but if your program is running in background either by SM37 or by doing a SUBMIT in the code, or even by doing so from the selection screen, the system variable SY-BATCH will be equal to "X".
