Oliver, The way you setup a system reply list entry and look SPECIFICALLY for PQT360, the only consequence would be when this condition REALLY existed and they need to intervene. Otherwise it just auto answers it and rolls on. We have a lot of HP LaserJet 4+'s hanging off of terminals and all kinds of "form types" hit these printers, but it all prints on plain paper so we have system reply list entries to answers Alignment and Load Form messages for each printer: Sequence Message Compare Opt Number ID Reply Compare Value Start 15 CPA3394 G 'PRT02' 1 16 CPA5335 I 'PRT02' 21 Change Reply List Entry (CHGRPYLE) Type choices, press Enter.

HTH, Chuck -----Original Message----- From: midrange-l-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:midrange-l-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of oliver.wenzel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Thursday, December 02, 2004 8:03 AM To: midrange-l@xxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Problem with printer messages Hello, we have lots of TCP/IP printers on our AS400, that are connected through special IPDS connector boxes. They all have identical configurations, but 2 or 3 of these printers are having an intermittent problem. We automatically print delivery notes (without any user intervention) and paper refill requests pop up on specific terminals and are controlled from there. Now some printers are sending wrong "Out of paper messages" (or the AS400 thinks they do) and stop printing, even though they aren't out of paper. The real problem is, that the message is not going to the specific terminals, but can only be answered on the print job itself. So if nobody notices the printer stopped printing, delivery notes will queue up and cause late delays. The printer joblog specifies the messages PQT3630 " Printer sent negative acknowledge with sense code" (CNACK101) and then message PQT4103 which has to be answered with PAGE by the user. I would set up a system reply list entry for PQT4103, but I don't know the consequences? How often does this happen and when and where else is this message used? The original problem could be anything from network issues, problems with the non-IBM IPDS converter or whatever - so I have no hope to clear up the original issue. Any ideas?
