You might also want to check the users id (wrkusrprf). See if the option
where to print is set. This can override the CL.

Subject: RE: Weird Printer Issue
Strictly from an OS/400 view, we've had this sort of thing happen when
users changed an outq to print to a different writer. Generally it was
users in a WRKWTR ASTLVL(*BASIC) who didn't understand the options.
Ending and starting the writer resets it back to normal. That wouldn't
really explain your held/release scenario unless someone was messing
with it at the time you looked.

I have one heck of a flaky situation. First, about two weeks ago I
connected a PC printer in our warehouse manager's office to our System i
(V5R1) via PC5250 printer emulation. Worked great - until yesterday.
The reports, documents, etc., for the two girls in the office started
printing to this new printer (BB), even though the OCL or CL explicitly
referenced a different printer. I even changed a procedure so that the
report (a one-pager) would be put on Hold. The @#$% thing not only went
to BB even though P6 was explicitly defined, but it was released. I ran
the same procedure from my workstation and everything was cool.
