Re: defer write parm

["David Murphy" <dmurphy@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

If the Defer Print parameter is indeed causing the problem, you may be able
to change it to *NO by changing the spooled file attributes (Option 2 on
the WRKOUTQ display).
Have you checked the QSYSOPR message queue for any messages relating to the
file? I know it won't print a spooled file if the file is empty.

Hope this helps.
