I checked these settings in CFGTCP and all appears to be fine. The problem still seems to be occurring, though. Each time I get the same type of joblog below. Not that it should matter but both are Lexmark Optra (model N and model S) printers and I have them setup as RMT printers currently. After checking supported printers on IBM site, it appears these printers could be setup as a *LAN type printer (says they support PJL) but which system driver should I use (*HPPJLDRV?). Anyone out there have these printers setup currently? -----Original Message----- From: ChadB@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:ChadB@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Friday, October 14, 2005 11:41 AM To: Midrange Systems Technical Discussion Subject: Re: Printers Die for No Reason It sounds like somethings wrong with either the domain setup on the server, or it's not resolving it's host name correctly to an IP address. Check to see that you have an entry in your local host table that specifies the IP address assigned to MARINE (if DNS is involved, verify that piece is correct also). You can check the items by doing what's suggested in the message detail below (CFGTCP Opt 12 and Opt 10). I've seen a similar issue where SMTP startup would fail intermittently during STRTCP because the server didn't have a listing for itself in the local host table. It was starting SMTP before DNS was up and failing to resolve its own name.

We've got lots of printers (LAN and RMT flavors) of various types and models. For quite awhile now, I have found 2 printers that just plain stop for no apparent reason. They are totally different types of printers as well. Each time they produce a joblog which show things working just fine up until I get the message in the log below. Each time, we just fire the writer back up and things print just fine. Sometimes it goes days without stopping, sometimes a few times PER day. I'm convinced connectivity is being interrupted to the printers somehow but I can't see how. Can anyone shed some more light on this error message? Thanks in advance.
