  Cause:
  
  Missing Print Module: The print module for the specified sample type is not defined in the system. This could happen if the module was never created or if it was deleted.
  Incorrect Configuration: The configuration settings for the sample type may not be set up correctly, leading to the system being unable to locate the appropriate print module.
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to access the print module.
  Transport Issues: If the print module was recently transported from another system, it may not have been properly imported or activated.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Print Module Configuration:
  
  Go to the transaction code SPAD (Spool Administration) and check if the print module for the specific sample type exists.
  If it does not exist, you may need to create it or configure it properly.

  Ensure that the print module is correctly linked to the sample type in the configuration settings.
  
  
  
  Verify Sample Type Configuration:
  
  Check the configuration for the sample type in the Quality Management settings (transaction code SPRO).
  Navigate to Quality Management > Quality Inspection > Inspection Lot Creation > Define Sample Types and ensure that the print module is assigned correctly.
