UPS Maxicode printing using SAP Scripts

[Former Member]

Hi All,

Has anyone worked on printing USP Maxicode on to a lable using SAP Script or Smartforms without using any third party s/w tool. I

Issue I am facing is that if I hard code the values in Hex...end Hex...and send it to printer then it is printing but it is not if I assign it to a variable and in the smart forms no matter wat the maxicode does not print. Points will be generously awared if any link or info or solution is provided.

Thanks..

Hi,

well we do print the maxicode from UPS but not though Smartforms/SAPscripts.

What we do is build the entire EPL code inside ABAP and then spool it to unix , print and delete it.

SAP will have issues with rs/gs/eot/ so until we can swap to a ZPL printer language. In ZPL there is a special command for SAP systems to send these characters

Bottom line: If you need to do it in EPL it will NOT work inside Smartforms unless you can use ZPL.
