We had adventures with setting up pasta today when we were called to check an issue logged where an instance was unable to print reports to a new Xerox printer. These were the steps to diagnose and finally solve the issue: 1. Check if printer is installed on unix 2. Print a plain text file to the printer with the command: lp -c filename.txt -d printername 3. Using ghostscript pdf2ps convert a pdf file into ps 4. Set environment variable PRINTER on unix: PRINTER=myprinter;export PRINTER 5. Send the ps file to printer through lp -c filename.ps 6. Check Pasta configuration in E-Business Suite Pasta is a post-processing printing tool used in Apps. The term post-processing is used because the Pasta program is called after the concurrent processing server has completed processing the request and has generated an output file. The Pasta executable is FNDPSTAX. It is invoked via the Apps printer driver ONLY if a printed copy has been requested. At the present moment, the latest available version is 3.0.4 (patch 3325651). You'll get the latest version when you apply the latest ATG rollup patch. Typing at the Unix command line FNDPSTAX –v will provide the version. E-Business Suite (EBS) is seeded with the printer type '--PASTA Universal Printer Type'. It can be associated with a Postscript printer and it’s ready for use with minimal changes or modifications to $FND_TOP/resource/pasta_printername.cfg Pasta is required for EBS instances installed with the Unicode (UTF8) character set. On a UTF8 instance, output files (reports) are created with the UTF8 character set. Unicode UTF8 is a relatively new character set and many existing printers do not support the Unicode character set. Therefore, Pasta is used to convert text output files to the Postscript format (an image) or to an alternate character set, which the printer supports. If you plan to print in Chinese, Japanese or Korean from your E-Business Suite instance, PASTA is the only way to do it.
