Why would there be more management of the printer device than the remote
outq?  The writer starts automatically on IPL.  When the system starts the
writer, it assigns it to QSYSOPR message queue by default.  As I recall,
there is one message that must be answered the first time after starting the
writer, but otherwise I've never seen any messages waiting on our remote
printer devices....

The biggest problem I've seen with setting up an actual printer device like
this instead of using a remote *OUTQ is that someone in the work area has to
be trained to manage the printer (answer messages, etc). Even though it
sounds easy enough to us, it has caused us all kinds of grief in my
company... If you can adjust and live with the reduced functionally of
Remote *OUTQ I'd do it if I was you ... That's my 2cents worth on this
subject....

Why do you want to use remote OutQ for a HP printer?  I'd recommend making
it an IP printer, which should provide full support for print overrides, and
so forth.  Remote OutQ does not support some features very well.

Heres the config source for one of our old HP printers.  You may have to
change the model specific parms to match your printer...

> Printek printer?

This is an HP with 2 drawers. We have tried the OVRPRTF with the
DRAWER specified, but for some reason the printer always seems to use
the same drawer irrespective of what we tell it to use.

We had a similar issue when we tried to tell it to print multiple
copies and we then found out that we had to set the DESTOPT parameter
as per the IBM document below when we create the OUTQ

http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=0&org=as400&doc=9F4B1D4D23C582F1

What i am trying to find out is if i need to do something similar for
the remote out queue to recognize the drawers

Thanks

Krish
