4247 Printer attached via Ethernet IPDS Card

I've got this new printer attached to our AS400 but it will not adjust the
length of the page when we run special forms.  The spool file says length 51
but the printer stays at 66.

Here is the device description.

 CRTDEVPRT DEVD(PRT4247) DEVCLS(*LAN) TYPE(*IPDS) MODEL(0) +            
          LANATTACH(*IP) AFP(*YES) PORT(5001) ONLINE(*YES) +            
          FONT(011 *NONE) FORMFEED(*AUTOCUT) SEPDRAWER(*FILE) +         
          PRTERRMSG(*INQ) MSGQ(*CTLD) ACTTMR(170) IMGCFG(*NONE) +       
          MAXPNDRQS(6) PRTCVT(*YES) FORMDF(*LIBL/F1C10110) +            
          CHRID(*SYSVAL) RMTLOCNAME('172.XX.XX.XXX') +                  
          USRDFNOBJ(QGPL/IBMPSF *PSFCFG) TEXT('IBM 4247 Printer') +     
          DEPLOCNAME(*NONE)    

Printer config says it is set to emulate a 4224.    

The IPDS feature seems to work because I can print bar codes correctly.


If anyone can point me in the right direction to fix this I would appreciate
it a lot.  

Thanks,
Greg
