Mehdi, If you are using client access, just open your client access terminal, click communications (menu), then take the configure option. Change the workstation ID to whatever you'd like your printer to be called on the AS400, then change "Type of emulation" to "printer", then click the Setup button. I've actually had better results by using the windows printer support, but if you wish to use host print transform (it's required for some things) click the "Transform print data" checkbox, and refer to http://www-912.ibm.com/s_dir/slkbase.NSF/acf2ee1e9d64b16e8625680b00020389/b44a2cf4ba778d83862568250053649f for setup details from IBM for many 3rd party printers, including Epson. Don't forget to Save AS (NOT Save) when you're done, or you'll toast your terminal session definition. If you're not connecting via Client Access, you can still set up your printer, but you'll need to (probably) configure it from the AS400, using the CRTDEVPRT (or possibly the CRTOUTQ, but that's a whole 'nuther story) command. The instructions mentioned above will also give you information that you'll need while doing that. Since I can't get very explicit here, it'll take some experimenting on your part, but it's not really all that difficult, once you've decided how you wish to proceed.
