Subject: RE: Spool file goes to SAV, but doesn't print


Spool file goes to SAV without printing when the print writer throws an error. Look at the print writer job log for the error. Usually it's an unescaped invalid character in the print stream or something to that effect, though it can be an error thrown by the printer or the SNMP server on the printer.

Not sure what yoou mean by "other side of a WAN connection". Do you mean going through a firewall? If so, then the answer is no.

Current driver for the printer is IBMSNMPDRV. This is a Xerox 3635MFP.
Manufact type/model is set to *LEXOPTRAT. There is also a wscst used for force drawer 2 for legal size.

John, is this device on the other side of a WAN connection? Depending
on the quality of the WAN link, you might have better luck avoiding
the PJL drivers. I've found that the PJL drivers are not as robust on
WAN connections as, for example, SNMP.

I've found that most modern print servers appear to support SNMP. You
should be able to try this out with a change to the device description.

Change Device Desc (Printer) (CHGDEVPRT)

Type choices, press Enter.

System driver program . . . . . SYSDRVPGM > *IBMSNMPDRV

This is a device, not a remote outq.
