RE: Printing problems after install of V3R2 Cum tape and RISC upgrade PTFs

[Neil Palmer <NPalmer@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Haven't experienced the problem (we don't use host print transform), 
but here are some recent V3R2 printing related PTF's that are NOT on 
the latest cum tape.
May be worthwhile applying them to see if it solves the problem:

SF43431, SF44618, SF44505

upgrade PTFs

Has anyone experienced any printing problems after permanently applying
the latest cum tapes and/or RISC upgrade PTFs?

Last Sunday, I permanently applied (re-IPL'd) the latest V3R2 
cumulative
PTFs and RISC upgrade PTFs.  On Monday, we experienced printing
problems.

1.  Any NetSoft printer sessions using Hostprint transform *Yes and
using a workstation customizing object (*WSCST) had the first print job
print out using a wrong font BUT subsequent reports printed out ok.

2.  Any printer using HOSTPRINT/400 started randomly losing
communication to the AS/400.

I have spoken with NetSoft, Netware SAA and IBM.  I applied the latest
patches and still no luck.  I performed a communications trace with IBM
and they are convinced the AS/400 is sending the right information.
While I'm sure that's true, it doesn't help solve my printing problems.
