want to use Pc printer as 400 printer

To accomplish this, you need an printer emulator program on your PC.  The
easiest way is to use an emulator that supports TN5250E.

1. Setup a Virtual Device on the AS/400 associated with your User ID or the
Display Device you use.

2.Connect the printer emulator through the Telnet server on the AS/400 to
the Virtual Device by entering the device name of the virtual device you
created and the IP address of the AS/400.

3.In your PC, select the printer attached to your LPT1.

4.Send a print job to test it.

This should work with any TN5250E compliant emulator including Client Access
Express and the Renex BlueZone AS/400 emulator (Shameless Plug!).  Please
feel free to download an eval copy an check it out.  Our support department
will gladly help anyone set this up.
