IBM Network 12/17 printers

[John Muirhead <jmuirh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi!

Does anyone have any experience installing and configuring IBM's Network 12 and 
17 printers via twinax connections to the AS/400. We're running into a problem 
with these printers when printing to them from PCs via Client Access' virtual 
print function (Win3.1 & 95 both) that causes the 2 paper trays to be addressed 
in reverse.

Here's an example:  when printing a Word document to this printer, if you'd 
like it to draw from Tray-2, you actually must tell the PC driver to draw from 
Tray 1!

>From the PC driver side, we've used the drivers that come with the printers 
(even downloaded the newest version) as well as used the "generic" HP Laserjet 
4 drivers, which is what used to work with all our old Lexmark 4039 and Optra R 
printers. Nothing seems to work.

Anyone else experience this phenomenon?  And what is your overall opinion of 
IBM's network printers?

Thanks.
