Maybe the printer device description?
Sounds like the host thinks the printer speaks a strange language . . .

Subject: A new printer and the Printer File
Good Morning.
Client has just installed an IBM 6400 line printer which is currently ignoring the Printer File associated with a specific report.
I know this because the Printer File specifies:
. 15 cpi printing, the printer is printing the report at 10 cpi.
. Draft mode, the report is in Standard mode
In addition the printed output is showing:
. At least 1 line of 198 spurious characters at the beginning of the
report.
. the characters "a+00216H" as the first 8 characters of every print
line.
Neither the spurious characters nor the "a+00216H" are in the report's spoolfile.
Any ideas where to go first?
