Output Management and Print Spooling on SAP Servers
Plus Technologies LLC Company Confidential - Copyright 2011Plus Technologies LLC Company Confidential - Copyright 2011Plus Technologies LLC Company Confidential - Copyright 2012
SAP itself has no enhanced print capabilities and relies on the basic spooling capabilities found at the operating system (O/S) level.
These operating system spooling systems are very basic in their function. On its own, SAP print spooling has very limited uses.

SAP DisadvantagesSAP Disadvantages
There is no integration between O/S spoolers and SAP, therefore no print status information can be passed back to the SAP system.
Further, there are no communications between printer and spooling system.
This means there is no printer or print job status available. An SAP user looking at their SAP screen would never know whether printing actually
occurred or if there was an error.
O/S spooling systems do not perform advanced print spooling functions that are required by many businesses.

OM Plus can ‘confirm’ that printing successfully occurred and the pages are in the output bin.
OM Plus will report status back to SAP so that SAP users can see the actual, real time status of their jobs on their SAP screens.
There is no need for users to invoke the OM Plus UI to see job or printer status. SAP users can request status and cancel jobs from within their SAP applications.
