These utilities test printing from an ABAP report and from SAPscript and print out the character sets specified in the output device type.

You can search for additional print test files by entering the text name *test*.
Alternative Printer Names for Testing
For testing printers, you can define more than one name for a printer. This is useful because it means that users can continue using the printer as usual under one name while you test different attribute settings using a different name.
