SP01: Output cannot be redirected to this printer

In the transaction code SP01, you found that one of the SAPscripts printing ended with the below warning,

Output cannot be redirected to this printer

Solution

[SAP Help] The character sets used by SAPscript are specified in the corresponding spool system functions. SAPscript printer fonts are specified in Font maintenance in the Spool menu. Because the composer fills text using printer-specific font metrics, SAPscript documents are already device-specific at this point. They can be redirected only to printers with the same font metrics.

Configure and assign the compatible output device for the SAPscripts. Most importantly, users should be aware of which printers / output devices before they start to print!
