Re: Netserver print share

["Paul Stratton" <Paul.Stratton@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Ensure the guest profile has a password and is enabled, the following is
from IBM's Netserver website:-


Printing Tips
AS/400 NetServer can be enabled to support users without a corresponding
AS/400 user profile through the use of a guest user profile. Since it is
considered a nontrusted user, the guest user profile should have no special
authorities. AS/400 Network Print Server requires that the guest user
profile be enabled and have a password, but AS/400 NetServer users will not
be prompted for this password. By default, the guest user profile is not
configured for AS/400 NetServer. The support can be added through Operations
Navigator

> Hello all,

> here is the situation: I configured Netserver on my AS/400 (V4R4). I used
a gest profil. This way I can access the IFS no problem. After that I
created a share for a printer. But when I install the printer on my PC and
tell it to use the share, I get the message that the printer is not
available and that printing will be done off line. This printer works well
when we access it from the AS/400. I think I must be missing something in
netserver.
