Check the printer config (or if you have a separate Jet Direct or similar
card)
and look at the timeout parm. May need to increase. The IBM Knowlege Base
(on Support site docs) has recommendations for various printers and in
general
the setup of remote writers. I've usually had to up a Jet Direct timeout,
especially
if over wan vs lan.
