Re: IBM 4019 Laser Printer setup on the AS400

[Peter_Vidal@xxxxxxxx]

This printer is not physically connected to a 5250 terminal nor a PC; however,
It can be used when running CA/400.  Users use it today to print screens and
other PC related documents.

My goal is to print bar coded reports from the AS400 and this one does it
very well.  I have my OUTQ defined but the system is not allowing me to
create a device for it in anyway I try.

This is how I created the OUTQ:

Work with Output Queue Description

Queue:   PAP001         Library:   QGPL

  Writer active  . . . . . . . . . . . :   N

A fairly old printer, but one that is supported in a number of ways.

The question of the day is "How do you have it connected ???"

If it's connected to a 5250 terminal with basic emulation, that's
pretty straight forward.(create a devd and use HPT)

If it's connected to a pc running CA/400, that's pretty straight
forward.(create a devd and use HPT)

If it's connected via twinax, it will auto config with no problem.
