What Are the Basic Installation and Configuration Steps?
You must use at least one of the Spool Transfer Programs SAPSprint or SAPlpd - or the SAPGUI (Windows) Client.
Using SAPSprint
- Install TBarCode/SAPwin in the SAPSprint installation folder.
SAPSprint is a Spool Transfer Software from SAP (see OSS Note # 894444) designed to be used on a print server (Windows platform).
Using SAPGUI
- Using Windows Client (front-end printing), install TBarCode/SAPwin into the SAPGUI directory (method G). V11 will chose the correct version and installation path automatically. V10: Use the x64 version for SAPgui 8.0+ (64-bit) and select the correct installation path manually.
Configuring SAP
- Copy the device type SWIN to ZSWIN.
- In SPAD, add a new printer or modify an existing printer (e.g. your local printer), use ZSWIN as device type. The host spool method can be G (GUI), F (front-end/SAPlpd) or S (Server/SAPSprint).
- Print the test document SAPSCRIPT-BARCODETEST available on client 00. You should see barcodes on the print-out by then.
