Printing several copies when we only want only one.from SAP to UNIX.

[Former Member]

Hi, we have a problem when printing from sap to unix queue.....

There is a program in abap that only indicates to send one printing .. but in unix we see that the queue sends sometimes 3, 4, 5 or two copies of the same printing.

do you know if there is a note in SAP that can solve this issue?

a test: when we send only one copy from sap (spad - sp01), in unix we saw 5:

u2665$ while true

> do

> lpstat TEST1022

> sleep 1

> done

no entries

no entries

TEST1022-767 USER1 priority 0 Apr 6 15:15 from SERVER1 on TEST1022

005xud4T.PR3 5 copies 34178 bytes

no entries

thanks in advance.
