Re: IP Printer on AS400

Keith,

Whenever I have a problem with a HP laser not printing quite right, I try
the HP LaserJet 4 drivers.  For some reason this seems to fix some problems,
especially with the 4000 series of printers.  So you might try changing the
printer type to *HP4.  This "shouldn't" make a difference, but is quick to
try.

I have a number of HP 2100 network laser printers as IP printers set up on
our AS400 using the following setup parameters...

<snip>

Host print transform . . . . . . . :*YES
Manufacturer type and model  . . . :*HP5

<snip>

The problem that I have is that I have recently configured a HP2200 network
laser printer using the same configuration and I am having problems with how
the pages are being printed.  The output is onto a pre printed form which
should start printing on about the 4th line of the page but no matter what
settings I change the output is being printed onto the 1st line of the page
even if the print program is changed.  When I hang the printer off of a pc
and create a session in client access for the printer and then print to it
the output is correct.  Is there something that I am missing here about IP
printer setep.  We are on V4R5...
