SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: PO - Spooler message

• Message number: 792

• Message text: &1

What causes this issue?

You want to query the status of a printer.

System Response

The system attempts to query the status of a printer over the network.
This is only possible for network printers, since the protocol on which
the status query is based is SNMP. The network printer must support
SNMP.
The status query returned the following message:
&V1&

How to fix this error?

If the printer is a network printer and the status query is not working,
enter the network address (IP address or host name) of the printer in
SPAD. The Internet Graphics Server (IGS) must also be configured and
accessible in the SAP system, since SNMP communication uses the IGS.
Note: it is not possible to query the status of front-end printers.

Procedure for System Administrators

An updated version of the IGS is required to query the status of
printers.
To query the status of printers with access method S, an updated version
of SAPSprint is required.
