A printer is local when the SAP spool server can pass output requests to the Windows spool system directly without having to send the data across a network. That is, the SAP spool server is running on the Windows PC to which the printer is attached.

Prerequisite: An R/3 application server that offers the spool service must be running on the Windows NT system.

If you want to set up a local printer in a Windows NT system, see Creating Local Connections to a Windows NT Printer.

Local printing is the fastest and most reliable way to output R/3 documents. You can also set up the NT printers using the SAPlpd transfer program and PC Connections to a Windows Printer. You can do this even if the spool server for the printer is running on the NT system.
