They are remote writes and we go directly to the printers IP noth through a server or printer definition.
I will look into the timeouts.

I appreciate any and all suggestions as we've had all the network staff and IBM programmers up at night trying to figure this out for the past month.
Thanks,
Kristine

Are these defined as *lan printers? or remote writers?
Are you talking directly to the printers, or thu a print server product on pc/network
or Client Access printer definition, or something like Jet Direct hardware box the printer is connected to?
Would check the network timeout value on the printer itself. IBM Knowledge Base used to (and may still have) docs on recommended values for various configurations. Make sure both printer & system are consistent and using recommended values. I have had similar issues when network setup is inconsistent on remote side.

Hello All!

We have an IBM AS400 in Minnesota and a remote office in Hong Kong that we are printing to. It seems that every night (their day) we can ping their printer but the AS400 cannot print to it and gets stuck in send mode.
Now we have 4 printers out there and it doesn't happen to them all, it is usually just one a night. At around 6am it will begin working again.

We get the following error:
TCP3436
Message . . . . : No response from remote host system within open time-out.

I'm wondering if anybody has a solution to this? It doesn't seem to be network given we can print to the other printers out there. If we try toggling off and on the device it still won't work.

Thanks,

Still at V4R5 and still operator-less.

We have several Intermec 3400's setup as remote writers.
CRTOUTQ with connection type *IP and the IP address. Added another
yesterday.

The As/400 print stays in send mode and this error appears in QSPL job:

TCP3436
Message . . . . : No response from remote host system within open
time-out.
Cause . . . . . : An open request was sent to a remote host system, but
that
host system did not respond to the request before the open time-out
expired.
This may be due to the fact that the TCP/IP services are not currently

available on the remote host system.


The network admin says he can ping it so there's no problem. VFYTCPCNN
from AS/400 also works. Where else should we be looking?

Thanks much,
