07/06/2019 HP Printers - Device types for SAP printing | HP® Customer Support

This document lists the HP printers that have SAP printing support, the recommended SAP device types for
each, and a link to the latest download. It is intended primarily for system administrators in a business Need he
environment. trouble

Device types are available for HP Business Inkjet printers, HP LaserJet printers, HP OfficeJet
Enterprise printers, HP PageWide Enterprise printers, HP OfficeJet Pro printers, and HP PageWide
Pro printers on the basis of PCL5 and PostScript support. For PCL3 or host-based printers, go to
SAP printing with PCL3 or host-based printers (c05063244).

NOTE: Use the HP v3 UPD for SAP printing with Device types. SAP printing with device types is
not supported on current HP model specific discrete drivers supporting Windows 7 and later
operating systems. The HP discrete drivers are based on the XPS driver architecture, which
does not support the passthrough capabilities required for SAP printing using device types.

Use this document to determine which device types are recommended for your PCL5-capable
printer(s).

NOTE: SAP assumes first-tier support for these device types via its SAP Service Marketplace
Web site. HP can neither support nor guarantee the functional performance of these device
types. For problems with any device type, contact SAP customer support at
http://www.sap.com/contactsap .

HP LaserJet
Unless otherwise indicated, the following device types use "Western European" or "North American" character
sets ISO 8859-1 (Latin 1).

NOTE: If you have a new commercial HP LaserJet Enterprise printer that supports PCL5, there
might be a delay in getting SAP support. Check the table below periodically for the latest SAP
support.

HP LaserJet family SAPWIN 3.0E & higher

NOTE: SAPWIN is a generic device type for printers (or fax devices) configured to print from
Windows PCs by means of the SAP System program (SAPLPD) using Windows printer drivers.
SAPWIN requires Server-based printing via SAPSprint or Frontend Printing via SAPgui. As of
SAP release 3.0E, you can use SAPWIN to print proportional fonts and lines/boxes in
SAPscript, and to Print black and white or color TIFF graphics using 32-bit SAPlpd in
Windows.2

About printer drivers and device types


A device type is a configuration file for the SAP printer driver that ensures proper functionality between the
SAP data stream and the PCL5 printer (or other output device) where the data is sent. When a new printer is
defined in the SAP environment, a device type must be specified to enable direct printing from the SAP
applications to the printer.

In the SAP System, a distinction is made between "printer driver" and "device type." The device
type consists of all the attributes defined for an output device. For correct access, these must be
made known in the SAP System. One of these attributes is the printer driver to be used by
SAPscript (SAP System forms processor) for the particular printer.

There are five SAPscript printer drivers for the following:

HP-PCL5

PostScript printers (PS level 2)

PRESCRIBE (for example, Kyocera FS-1500)

Device types SWIN/SAPWIN/xxSWIN/xxSAPWIN

trouble
In most cases, the SAP System already provides the appropriate device type for the printer type
for the printer model that you want to use. When you define an output device, choose the name
of the device type that was defined in the SAP System for your printer model, such as Post2 for a
PostScript printer.

The last driver is known as the "standard driver." It cannot provide absolutely precise positioning
on the paper and does not support proportional fonts. Printer drivers are relevant for forms
output with SAPscript. For the output of ABAP lists, special printer drivers are only used as of SAP
Release 4.5A. They are anchored in the C kernel and are developed and maintained exclusively by
SAP.

In the spool environment, device types refer not only to printers but also to other output devices,
for example, fax machines. Device types support specific printers or printer models. Device type
definitions are stored completely in tables and can be individually adapted, modified or enhanced.
The list of device types is continually expanded.

Device types overview


Generally, device types with the “Z” prefix are custom device types developed by users or print vendors for
specific purposes. These device types are developed and fully tested in accordance with SAP development and
testing guidelines. In most cases, they are the same device types available through SAP. HP provides the “Z”
prefix versions of these device types as an optional way for users to access the device types.

ZHPLJCM1 is a common device type for most newer HP LaserJet printers and HP PageWide printers that
have released since Fall 2006. This device type has the following features:

Supported languages: ISO Latin 1

PDL: PCL 5 - Duplex Printing: Yes

Input Tray: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5

Output Tray: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5

Additional print options: Input trays, Output trays, Double-sided (duplex) printing, and Staple option

User password

Status feedback with SNMP: Yes

ZHPUTF8F is the device type that supports the HP International Printing Solution (IPS) for Unicode for HP
LaserJet Printers.

ZI7HP4 is the device type for the HP Greek font for HP LaserJet printers.

SAPWIN - SAPWIN is a generic device type for printers (or fax devices) configured to print from Windows PCs
by means of the SAP System program SAPLPD1 using Windows printer drivers. SAPWIN device types use the

ISO 8859-1 (aka Latin 1) character set.

trouble
NOTE: As of SAP release 3.0E, you can use SAPWIN to Print proportional fonts and
lines/boxes in SAPscript and to Print black and white as well as color TIFF graphics (in 32-bit
SAPlpd in Windows).2

SAPWIN5 - The device type for printing Cyrillic characters (character set ISO 8859-5, for example Russian)
with SAPlpd/Microsoft Windows. This device type works exclusively with the Russian Windows 95 or NT 4.0
(not with Windows 3.1). To use it, a 32-bit version of the SAPlpd with a number 4.00 or higher is required1.

POSTSCPT - The SAP device type which is used for pure PostScript printers1.

POST2 - New device type for PostScript-level-2 printers which can be used alternatively to POSTSCPT1. The
device type POST2 offers an improved output of ABAP print lists by using a special PostScript-L2 printer
driver and can therefore only be used in SAP System releases as of 4.5A.

Create a Custom Device Type for SAP printing


The device type indicates the type of printer and provides the SAP System with the information it needs to
correctly control the printer output including commands for font selection, page size, character set selection,
and so on. Most printers can also be controlled using a generic or printer-independent format, such as
PostScript (Post2).

If a specific device type is not available, and generic device types cannot be used, users can create
a custom device type or edit a copy of an existing SAP device type using the Spool Administrator
(SPAD). Only administrators with specialist knowledge of the SAP Spool System and printer driver
code should do this. For detailed information about device types, go to the SAP Service
Marketplace  and search for "Device Types for SAP Output Devices (Detailed Information)".

NOTE: SAP does not support modified Device Types and HP does not currently provide any
services to create custom device types for users.

Generally, device types with the “Z” prefix are custom device types developed by users or print
vendors for specific purposes. These device types are developed and fully tested in accordance
with SAP development and testing guidelines. In most cases, they are the same device types
available through SAP. HP provides the “Z” prefix versions of these device types as an optional
way for users to access the device types.

Users can hardcode a default feature to a specific media type, which means every time the media
type is selected when using this device type, it will print based on the new default. For example, if
the printer initialization for Letter was set to the default input tray 4, every time letter was
selected, it would print only from tray 4.

Users can add a Print Control and embed it in each output file. In addition, they can add a custom
media type to the device type, so the user can select, for example, LetterTray4 to pull Letter-size
media from Tray 4.

All custom device types have a “Z” prefix.

Printing with checks and barcodes


The device type consists of all the attributes defined for an output device. They cover aspects such as control
commands for font selection, page size, character set selection, character set used and so on. These do not
include aspects for barcode or check printing.

Barcode and Check printing solutions are not supported by HP. For barcode or check printing from
the SAP System with HP LaserJet printers, please contact the third-party partner for the specific
solution. These solutions may require a DIMM module such as a barcode or MICR DIMM or
additional fonts or symbols such as E13B, CMC7, OCR-A and OCR-B.

Troubleshooting
SAP device type files are required in order to enable direct-printing from an SAP R/3 server because SAP runs
on many platforms and operating systems, and its applications produce documents in proprietary formats,
SAP has developed its own output management system to shield users from server operating system printing

intricacies, enable direct printing from the applications to a variety of output devices, and ensure seamless
output in all environments. Need he
trouble
This system is part of the SAP applications running on a server, and includes generic SAP-
developed printer drivers that format output data streams being sent to a printer. Because these
drivers are generic, they need the device type files to supply them with specific configuration
information about the various printing devices the data streams may be sent to. This is true
regardless of the server operating system the SAP applications are running on (e.g. Windows,
UNIX, Linux, etc.). Without the proper device type files, the SAP drivers will not know the
personalities of the various printing devices, and direct printing from the SAP server will not be
enabled.

SAP provides development and testing of device types for HP printers to ensure the support of
SAP standard printing functionality. For problems with any device type, contact SAP customer
support at http://www.sap.com/contactsap .
