RE: IPDS printer

I'm not using a HP4000TN, but the only difference between my setup and 
yours is that I have my port number specified (9100) and I use a *PSFCFG 
configuration file.

Hi all - here's an IPDS printing error.

To print an IPDS SPLF, I defined an IPDS printer on a
HP4000TN, with an IPDS I-data DIMM card included. The
printer is *IP, a ping from AS to the printer's
address is OK.

On the AS, with CRTDEVPRT, I created the following
DEVD:

______________________________

When starting the printer I get in QSYSOPR the
following error:

Message ID . . . . . . :   PQT3625
Message type . . . . . :   Information
Date sent  . . . . . . :   05/10/99

Message . . . . :   Connection with device PRMTL0202
is being retried.  Cause : A session cannot be
established with the device at RMTLOCNAME
199.202.202.43, using PORT 0. The error code is 22.

22:      The device did not respond to a connection
request.
______________________________

When trying to print, the SPLF rests in PND; it never
goes to WTR.

I tried to scan more than 200 threads in the David's
Archive List concerning IPDS printing, but I didn't
find anything of help.

Any idea ?

Thanks,
