Printing more spools with more copies the pages are mixed

[former_member1161170]

Hi Experts.

By a z-program I can print at same time more spool files, each one has three copies.

The result that I get on the printer is: the first copy of the first spool, the first copy of the second spool, the second copy of the first spool, the first copy of the third spool, the third copy of the first spool and so on.

The spool copies are mixed!

I get the same result doing the same thing by SP01: i flag three spool with three copies each, then I push "print without modify" and I get on the printer all the pages ... but mixed.

I need to print all the spool together but in order: the first spool with its three copies, the second spool with its copies, and so on. Sometimes I have twenty or more spools: it's not very friendly to print one spool at time.

How can I get it?

Have you check the output device settings viz SPAD
SPAD -> Output Device (select the output device that you use for printing) -> Output Attributes tab
? Process requests sequentially is this checked?

I have changed the attribute: it works fine now.

Problem solved!

Thank you very much.

It looks like the "copy grouping" option of Smart Forms (spool with the free attribute S_COPYMETH set to NONCOLLATE).

Is your spool generated by SAPscript, Smart Form, ABAP list, PDF or what?

They are all Sapscripts, and by SE71 I can't find an attribute like "COPYMETH".

However I solved by the SPAD parameter.

Thank you for the help.
