Re: Odd printer problem

It knows what is mounted for forms. Is it possible that it believes the checks are already mounted; so why send a message? 

Try changing one of the OVRPRTF to formtype=plain.

Modified a application to print two reports at the same time.

Made changes to prtf and CLP program which contains a standard
ovrprtf with forms type,outq,etc,etc.

Both OVRPRTF's have the following:  align=*yes
                                     formtype=checks
                                     hold=*yes
                                     save=*yes


The printer is attached to a 3488...


The report prints out fine but the system refused to issue either a
"mount forms" or "align forms" message for either form.

Both forms DO go on hold. When released, they print fine.

Since one of the reports is checks, we want a forms mount message to
occur for the plain paper report that follows the checks.

It ain't happening and I'm stumped.
