Re: Remote printer problem

["Avi Hecht" <avi_hecht@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Jeffrey,

Thank you for your input,

I am talking of release V4R4M0

It looks like the printer is using

the drawers at random .
If I change the spool file to drawer 2

it feeds from drawer 1 which is A4 paper

If I change the spool file to deawer 3

it stops with attention drawer 3 is A3 paper

on other drawers it stops with message load letter

I think I am going to retreive the driver and customize it

scs=yes.

 

Thanks again and I welocome your opinion.

Avi

Avi,

 

    You don't say what release.  But I just went through a project on 4.4 with the InfoPrint 21 and had to apply many PTF's to get things

working okay, and there are still issues for which PTFs are pending.  As I understand it the issue is being caused by a new print engine in the product line that has resulted in numerous changes to the way the ISeries/400 drives the device.

 

    Look at the following;

SF63950, MF25055, SP63920, SF63854, SF63844, SF55237, SF59895, SF63673, SF62773, MF23611, SF63673, SF62933

    And others released since early October.

Hi,

 

I have a IBM printer type InfoPrint attached to the net

and configured as an remoute outq on the AS/400

with setting of *IBM4332 and outq name 'TEXT'

 

Ping to printer is ok but if I print the spool file it goes

into SND and evaporates but nothing comes out on the printer .

 

Second to direct the output to a specific tray is it enough to

do chgsplfa to the drawer I want or do I have to OVRPRTF in

the program that produces the spool file , There are five trayes

 

Thanks,

Avi
