Scott,

If all you need to do is send print from one AS/400 to a printer on a second 
AS/400, you can do this with remote output queues.

This is all coming from memory, but I think this will be pretty close.

Once you get the two AS/400s communicating (SNA or IP), create a remote output 
queue on the system without the attached printer (local system) that points to 
the output queue of the printer on the system with the attached printer (remote 
system).

  CRTOUTQ  OUTQ(lib/name)  RMTSYS(remote_system_name or remote_host_name)  
RMTPRTQ(remote_output_queue)  AUTOSTRWTR(1)  CNNTYPE(*IP or *SNA)  
TRANSFORM(*NO)

Repeat this for every remote printer you need to print to.  Whenever a spool 
file gets sent to the output queue on the local system, it will get sent to the 
associated output queue on the remote system.

HTH,

My goal is to get an AS/400 , model 9406 sitting in city A to print to 400 
printers sitting in city B.
