Re: Infoprint 40 & Barcodes

Dear Buck,

As you mentioned, InfoCentre does seem to work well.

I checked out the URL reference you posted and I found that in my opinion
one of the bullets IBM listed is a little misleading.

Their bullet under PSF/400 required is as follows: "Any printer that has the
DEVTYPE parameter specified as *IPDS and the AFP parameter specified as
*YES."

It happens that the AFP parameter set to *YES is a requirement for creating
a LAN TCP/IP printer device description for any IPDS capable printer
attached to an iSeries or AS/400 host no matter the functions you plan to
select on the printer with your OS/400 based applications.

There are so many end users configuring TCP/IP attached IPDS printers these
days that I would have thought IBM would have listed TCP/IP attachment as a
requirement for PSF/400.

Best Regards,

/Paul
