Separator pages is a function of the print writer, not the device description as you have SEPPGM in the DEVD set to *NONE. You might try ending the writer on the "bad" printer and starting it again with STRPRTWTR paying attention to the separator pages (FILESEP). Also, if you have INIT(*FIRST) on the writer, rotation might stay in effect from one spooled file to the next as the printer is only initialized on the first spooled file after the writer is started with this option.

Most folks let the writers autostart so they never mess with STRPRTWTR unless they stop and start the writer to do special forms processing.

Subject: problem with printer PCL

Hi

I have a three printers HP4350 with PCL:
Two works fine but one not. This one-bed printing separately page at the and of every printout and the printout are rotated at 180 degrees.
What is more strange the definitions are the same, have you any idea what I did wrong?

Below are listed DEVD's and OUTQ's for good and bad printer...
