Summary :
This SAP Note outlines the process for modifying existing ABAP list formats or adding new formats for specific device types. It starts by suggesting copying the standard device type via the SPAD transaction to create a customer-specific type, which then allows for the adjustment or creation of new list formats. The note explains detailed steps for the customization through SPAD, from copying standard device types to modifying printer initialization commands. It emphasizes the importance of custom format naming conventions and various settings including form attributes, line and character settings, and modifying print commands for device-specific adjustments. It also notes exceptions for newer PCL-5 and PostScript printers which utilize list printer drivers, altering how lists are controlled. The modifications are tested by printing on the configured device type.
