Hi Sriram,

Thank you for your detailed answer.

one questions still remains is

     Do we need to do any DNS entries at SAP side or printer side?

     How printer host and SAP Server will communicate ?

If below is the scenario

     SAP Server ---->SAP Router ---->Print server

Is there any settings we need to add into the router ? e.g port 515 etc

Is there any entry required at Print server.

Hi Vinay

For your query's

  Do we need to do any DNS entries at SAP side or printer side?

Its not require to define the DNS. you can assign the IP address of the HOST Spool server which is running the SAPSPrint service.

     How printer host and SAP Server will communicate ?

Form SAP system that on SAP Spool server to host spool server that is where you are installed the SAPSPrint service by using the 515 port in host spool server

   SAP Server ---->SAP Router ---->Print server

  Not that way, SAP System to Print Server(Host spool server) Kindly refer the below screen shot use the SAP SPrint method S

Is there any settings we need to add into the router ? e.g port 515 etc
Is there any entry required at Print server.

Nothing to do any thing in the SAP router
