Check out the IBM manual called OS/400 Printer Device Programming.  It has a
chapter devoted specifically to TCP/IP attached printers.  You can get it
online (V4R3) at
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com:80/cgi-bin/bookmgr/BOOKS/QB3AUJ02/CCONTENTS

Basically, it looks a lot like a traditional twinax printer, except that you
have a device class of *LAN, you specify the port the printer listens to,
you specify the IP address of the printer, and the name of the driver
program.

Here's an HP5P:

DEVCLS      *LAN    
TYPE        3812    
MODEL       1       
LANATTACH   *IP     
PORT        9100    
ATTACH      *DIRECT 
TRANSFORM   *YES   
MFRTYPMDL   *HP5   
RMTLOCNAME            
            TECH_PARK 
WSCST       *NONE     
USRDFNOBJ   TECH_PARK     
              *LIBL       
              *PSFCFG     
USRDTATFM   *NONE         
SYSDRVPGM   *HPPJLDRV     
TEXT        Tech Park HP5P 

The definition object (CRTPSFCFG) is all defaulted.

You can tweak the workstation configuration object (WSCT), but we haven't
had to do that here.  I believe the Midrange-L archives should help with
that.  This topic is a perennial favourite!
