Really weird printer problem

["York, Albert" <albert.york@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I am having a problem with a printer. When I try to vary it on I get this
message:

 Message ID . . . . . . :   CPF1189       Severity . . . . . . . :   70

 Message type . . . . . :   Information

 Date sent  . . . . . . :   09/27/01      Time sent  . . . . . . :
13:33:49


 Message . . . . :   Subsystem QCTL varied off work station PRT01.

 Cause . . . . . :   Subsystem QCTL received CPF5257 while using file
QDSIGNON
   in library QSYS record format SIGNON.  As a result of this error, work

   station PRT01 was varied off by the subsystem.

 Recovery  . . . :   Correct the problem that is causing the CPF5257 error.

   Display the job log of the subsystem for more information.  After the

   problem has been corrected, vary the device on (VRYCFG command).  The

   subsystem will then allocate the work station when it becomes available.




It is definitely a printer. Here is the device description:

Anybody got any ideas?
