  • Subject: (lp5250d) SNA Protocol Error?
  • From: Scott Klement <klemscot@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

I've created a scenario where a document is generated on the AS/400 using
different size fonts, graphics, etc. the print file is set up as an *AFPDS
type, if that matters.

Of course, I'm using Host Print Transform to convert the data to my
printer's language, and lp5250d as a transport to get it to from the
AS/400 to the PC.

Okay, here's the problem...

When I print this document the first time, it works great.   But the 2nd
one causes the AS/400 to say that the print writer ended abnormally.

The job log states:

 Message . . . . :   Error on device PI.  Device response code is 6136.         
 Cause . . . . . :   SNA protocol error.  There is a probable device
error.     
   Recovery  . . . :   Device response codes and their meanings follow:         
   80040000-Incorrect device address. 20040000-Direction error.                 
   08130000-Bracket bid not supported. 6130-Incorrect data received.            
   6150-Partial chain received. 6136-Unexpected response received.
   6138-System cannot obtain send state. Close the file QPSPLPRT in QSYS 
   and try the request again. If the error occurs again, enter the ANZPRB
   command to run problem analysis.  

If I end and restart lp5250d, It does the same thing -- works for the
first spool file, the 2nd one causes it to end with this error again.

I tried the same thing with both LPR/LPD (directly from the AS/400 to
the UNIX box) and with RUMBA under Windows, and did not have any problems,
so its not the document.

Any ideas?   Want a tracefile?

-Scott
