This is a multipart message in MIME format. -- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] Having been dragged kicking and screaming back to the dark side of configuring printers... Don't assume that WRKWTR will show you all printer writers. That defaults to *PRT. Changing WRKWTR from *PRT to *ALL will show you all (active) writers. If the remote printer writer is not running you'll have to do a STRRMTWTR - there will be no option 1 for a stopped remote writer. Sometimes these may not have a device - just an output queue. Sometimes people insist on a device so that they can print to it with query and they want to change an existing spool file to this output queue and cannot learn OUTQ(XXX/YYY) but insist on DEV(XXX). This will get you in trouble. Because then there will be a writer that they assume they can use WRKWTR to stop and start. The device is what creates a traditional printer writers. Do the CFGTCP and look at the hosts table and make sure that is right. If they didn't use a host table - check your DNS. Do the WRKOUTQD and make sure they did it by name, and not IP address.

But, spoolfiles will not print from this Q. Do I need to STRHOSTSVR *ALL to reset this?
