Re: Attach Intermec 3400

If you can print to the printer from within Windows, however you attach it, 
then you need to go into the Client Access program group and click on the icon 
to configure a session.  In the configuration screen you will be able to select 
whether it is a display or printer session and you should choose the printer 
setting.  In the workstation or session name field give it a name (e.g. 
INTERMEC) and then click on the OK button.

A printer "control panel" window will be displayed, and you should be able to 
go into the File menu and select which printer you want the session to point 
to.  Select your label printer and when done use the File - Save menu and 
option to save the configuration definition.

An output queue called INTERMEC will be created on the 400.  On the AS/400 you 
can direct spool files to this queue and any in the RDY status will be sent to 
the printer via Client Access.

Note, that a) the queue will only "work" when the printer session is running, 
and b) you'll need to be careful about the size of the spool files (page 
height, width, etc) that you send to the printer.

This is all from memory, so my apologies if it's not too explicit.

All the best
