RE: Multi-function printers

Jim,

It is defined as a remote outq.  I did specify the customizing object on
the outq and restart the writer.  However, I am really questioning if I
made the correct changes to the customizing object.

Thanks,

Jim R.

Is it defined on iSeries as a remote outq or *lan printer ?
If remote outq - then customize object is specified on outq (and
end/start remote writer) If a *lan printer - then customize object is
specified on device description (and you will probably need to vary off
device to change.
