Phani,

We have one printer that is configured from three different AS/400s. All we
did was setup the remote output queue the exact same way on each system.
The printer doesn't care where the LPR/LPD requests come from, it will
print them. The AS/400s don't care what else addresses the printer, they
will still send. I don't think that you need to pass the spool file from
system B to system A to print, unless there is a specific reason (System B
is not on the network, for example).

If that is the case, then setup a dummy user profile on system A that has
the output queue as the remote output queue. Then use SNDNETSPLF to send
the spool file via SNADS from system B to the dummy user profile on system
A. I think this will then send the print to that user's output queue which
should actually send it to the printer.

HTH,
Mark Welte

Subject:  configuring remote printer queue




Hi,

I have created a TCP/IP remote queue on SYS-A to print on to a remote
printer. this is working fine.
some of the users do STRPASTHR SYS-B and want to use the same printer from
SYS-B also.
I have again created a remote queue with the parameter RMTSYS(*PASTHR) on
SYS-B. (Help says that the
remote printer queue specified, will be used on the system from where the
passthrough was done).
this is not working. the spool files are going to HLD state. Somebody
please
help me to make this work

Regards,
Phani
