Re: PRINTONIX P5215 connection to AS/400. HELP!

Rommy:

You may have to use remote output if you do not have a HP printer.  IBM
provides only HP driver as far as I know in V3R7M0.  You can only define an
IP device printer with HPIV and above printer.

Oludare

If you have TAATOOL. Use CMD(PRTPAGRNG).
