Testing Output Devices
Three functions are available for testing new printers. To access the functions, choose Tools
® CCMS ® Spool ® Spool administration. Then select Utilities ® For test data. These utilities test printing from an ABAP report and from SAPscript and print out the character sets specified in the output device type.For the SAPscript test, enter the text name sapscript-druckertest and language DE or EN in the SAPscript text processing screen displayed. Print the text using form S_TEST_P to test portrait printing and using form S_TEST_L to test landscape printing. The text is printed in the S_TEST style.
Additional tests can be executed using the other entries in the Utilities menu.
Alternate Printer Names for Testing
For printer testing, you can define more than one name for a printer. Users can continue using the printer as usual under one name while you test different attribute settings using a different name.
