Summary :
In SAP up to Release 4.6C, there is an issue with processing lists over 255 characters using the SAPWIN/SWIN device type. SAP Note 1079665 which applies from Release 6.20 addresses similar issues. The resolution includes applying updates per Note 313566 which introduces improved printing formats (X_65_512/2, X_65_1024/4) in Release 4.6D and higher. For earlier releases or missed updates in Basis Releases 6.10 and 6.20, importing the ZSWIN device type is recommended. Implementation details and required transports for device types and formats are provided to ensure compatibility and functionality across different SAP system versions.
