RE: Printer problems with overlays

[Nick_Radich@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

Hi Jeff,

I tried changing the parm ACTTMR to *NOMAX, but I get an error stating 
that I have to have it set up as a *LAN printer and AFP= *YES.  I do have 
it set up as *LAN but can not find where to put AFP=*YES.

Any ideas where?

We are at V4R5.



Thanx,

Nick

Try changing the Print Request Timer to '*NOMAX',we had that problem
with some of our Info Printers (IP20, IP21, 1532 & 1552).

Subject: Printer problems with overlays

Hi Everyone,

I have just recently replaced an HP LaserJet 2100TN with an IBM
InfoPrint
21 printer in our Shipping Dept.  One of the main things printed on this
printer is the Bill Of Lading.  This is a PRTF with an overlay in it.

It worked fine in the past with the HP printer, but now with the
InfoPrint
21 it will "sometimes (5%)" print, and other times, "most of the
time(95%)",  the Printer will go to status "END".  I have to stop/start
the Print Writer a few times to get it to work again.

I also have Sharp ARM 350 Copier/Printer set up there with the same
exact config, and it prints with no problems.  That is where I am
printing the BOLs now.

Normal PRTFs print OK.

I have it configured as:

DEVD        MORSHPLAS1 
OPTION      *BASIC 
            *PRT 
 
DEVCLS      *LAN

              QSPLJOB

This is the same config as I had for the HP.

Also, I tried setting it up as an *IPDS printer instead of a 3812.  The
printer never "ended", but the overlay moved up about 3 lines, so I
could not go that route.

We are at V4R5. :-(

Any help would be greatly appreciatted.



Thanx,

Nick
