Good Day Jamal

I've not previously had to do that, but I have a couple of ideas that might get the result you desire.

You could delete it entirely from SPAD. Recreate it when needed. This has the advantage of not having the printer appear in the list of available printers, if a user were to go looking for it. If they don't see it they (probably) won't try to use it (although some may already have it set as the default printer).

You could change the "destination host" in the "access method" tab to an invalid value and then change it back when ready. I like this less, since someone who uses the printer will get a cryptic 'invalid host' error. That may result in someone trying to find & fix an issue, which doesn't really exist.

Regards,

Subject: [sap-basis] printer locked but still prints



hello expert,
i have found this topic "http://sap.ittoolbox.com/groups/technical-functional/sap-basis/blocked-printers-work-anyway-block-printer-611663" related to what i want to discuss, but i didn't find any response and i think because of it is so old.
i have locked a printer in SAP, but this printer still works and without do in it in another transaction, i just do it from spad when i get to this printer and execute a test of printing, this printer is red in the output devices lists.

do i have to add some customizing? or i have to lock it in another level.

Jamal.
