Hi Vinay

Kindly follow the steps to configuration of SAP SPrint method

1. What activities should  I do at Network side?

Just do the normal printer configurations from network printer -XYZ to Printer host: XNEWY. and install the SAP S print service on host XNEWY, and check the service is started

2. What activties should I do at SAP System side?

In SAP System side go to T-code SPAD → Output Devices → This graphic is explained in the accompanying textChange→ Output device → Create/Create using template

Under the Device Attributes - Tab

1. Output Device name  XYZ_SAP

2. Short Name - XYZ

Under the Access Method tab

4.Host Spool Access Method -S

5. Host printer - XYZ (Where is the XYZ printer configured )

6  Destination host - XNEWY (Where the SAP S print service running host)

3. How should I test if  priting at that network printer is working or  not ?

From SAP system just select the output printer Device name - XYZ_SAP to release the printout,
