AS400 Mixmode BPCS 6.1 This is more of an AS400 question than a specific BPCS question for you AS400 guru's. I have the need to setup IP addressed printers that are not network printers. Basically, I've created *RMT outputq's and then attach a printer to the AS400 using a print server. The printer server's IP address is the address I assign the *RMT output queue. This works fine when printing from BPCS and sending print to a specific output queue but a true printer device is not defined on the AS400. So for instance, in Query, if I want this query to print to that *RMT output queue, I can't automatically have the query send the printout there becuase the query is looking for a printer device name not an ouput queue. The output queue will not work in the printer device name since there's not really a printer device defined for the print server or the output queue. The above example occurred when installing an EPSON 5000 wid carriage printer to our AS400.. This printer was installed across town at another location where all devices are connected via TCP/IP. The print server was used to connect the printer but the only way I know to do this is via the creation of the remote output queue. Is there a better way to do this type of connection. thanks +--- | This is the BPCS Users Mailing List! | To submit a new message, send your mail to BPCS-L@midrange.com. | To subscribe to this list send email to BPCS-L-SUB@midrange.com. | To unsubscribe from this list send email to BPCS-L-UNSUB@midrange.com. | Questions should be directed to the list owner: dasmussen@aol.com +---
