Any packets, Ping included (which are ICMP), will travel the path from
the iSeries to the printer and back. By doing so the printer may be
'woken up' and as such finally handle the spool job. We have written
jobs that do nothing but ping RF laser scanners to keep them from
powering off and crashing the 5250 sessions. If this solution always
works I'd set up a batch job to run and just do a Ping every minute or
two. Negligible netowork or OS/400 overhead and if it works, you win.

I have been having problems w/ a remote printer, that actually goes through a third party
warehouse. The spool will stay in "SND" status. I tell the manager there to
reset everything then I END the writer, restart. Often nothing happens, but then I
remember to see if I can PING, and then it prints again. Does the PING so something?
