Hi Ravilla,

In case of dot matrix printer, lines of template only get printed.

Try to resolve your issue using templates.

Hello,

There are some general known limitations with Dot Matrix printers.
For example, the BOX command is not supported with Dot Matrix/Line
printers when you use the dedicated device type. eg: device type EPESCP2

There are several other limitations to the device types that use the
STN2 driver(Line Printer driver II ) as described in the SAP Note:
   19807 - SAPscript print problems with standard driver STN2

These problems with Dot Matrix printers can be overcome by using device
type SAPWIN with the Dot Matrix printers connected to a Windows system.
SAPWIN is also a page-oriented device type, which supports the BOX
command.

By using SAPWIN device type, you can use access method G (SAP note 821519)
or S (note SAP 894444).

David
