Label printing

I am printing labels on Zebra printer. I have created text file using 3rd part tool and loaded that in standard text and using that standard text in SAP forms to print the labels. When I try to print the file is directly going into spool. When I try to print from there it gives me message "Waiting in host spooler". What does it mean. Do I need to change the page format in smart form. I am using letter format. My label size is 140 x 100.

Do I need to some setting on the printer? My problem is that we don't have the printer. It is at different location.

Thanks

Hi AP,

In order to print with ZEBRA printers need to ensure that the following steps have been followed in sequence.

1. Network Administrator. Set up printer on the network and test printer and margins. Netwrotrk admionistrator must be able to print to the printer first

2. SAP Basis Administrator. Link printer to SAP and print to that printer

3. SAP Developer. Print smartform to the printer.

If steps 1 and 2 have been completed, them you need to ensure that you have followed smartforms printing instructions provided by zebra (there are some special rules... For example should print in portrait, use large page format...

I suggest you to go to zebra internet side and download smartform step by step instructions that will tell you how to format smartforms to print with Zebra printers.

Hope this helps a little,

Michael
