Re: Remote printing -- MIDRANGE-L

Joe,

    The problem is with the Remote Printer Queue.  What piece of software are 
you using as your
LPR client?  We use NIPrint and the queue name in NIPrint that we created has 
to match exactly
what you describe in the outque config on the AS/400.

    Example we use   raw   on both sides.  Actually I have to key  'raw'  for 
the Remote
Printer Queue on the AS/400.  I then create a queue in NIPrint called   raw   
and associate the
printer to this queue.

    If you need more help let me know.

Danny Mc?
