to work. The command prompt when issued creates the device, goes active, but the moment a stored print job in the queue is released the connection drops with a 'hardware error msg' on the qsysopr msgs and the connection is lost.

I can do a test print from printtool successfully and I can do a | to lpr -Plinuxoptra successfully, but I can no longer get a test print from the AS400. The device will stay active if there is an alignment msg generated, until I answer the msg.

Thanks

Mike
