Re: Remote output queue

[bdietz@xxxxxx]

Is there a reason you are useg the printer as an outq as opposed to a *LAN
printer??

You will gain more functionality out of the device if you create as a lan
printer( print page ranges, "easier for users to use")

CRTDEVPRT DEVD(DEMO)
          DEVCLS(*LAN)
          TYPE(3812)
          MODEL(1)
          LANATTACH(*IP)
          PORT(9100)
          FONT(087)
          PARITY(*NONE)
          STOPBITS(1)
          TRANSFORM(*YES)
          MFRTYPMDL(*HP4)
          PPRSRC1(*LETTER)
          PPRSRC2(*LETTER)
          RMTLOCNAME('123.123.123.123')
          SYSDRVPGM(*HPPJLDRV)


Give it a try................

============================
I have a remote output queue configured for an IP printer on our LAN (an
HP
LJ5N).  The problem I am having is that when I send spoolfiles to it from
any AS,  regardless of the formtype set on the spoolfile, it arrives at
the
IP printer as formtype 'LETTER' and for each page sent, I have to press
'GO'
to get it to print; not only is this very inconvenient for the users, but
it
holds up other users (primarily WP users).

I have the manufacturer and model set to *HP5 on the *OUTQ description,
but
there does not appear to be any way to affect the formtype.

Could this be the *HP5 driver setting the formtype? Perhaps I need a
*WSCST?
Perhaps some inspiration to cure my tunnel vision?

Kind Regards,
