RE: Creating *LAN printer descriptions

Hi guys,

The reason I was looking for a Device Description was because when I did a
WRKSPLF and then an F22 for Printers, these printers showed up on the
screen. Now they don't.

I recreated a RMTOUTQ for my shipping printer, but when we try to print
something from it, we have to turn the printer off, then on again. If I
have more than 1 SPLF to print, waiting for each other, I can turn the
printer off and on and all of the SPLFs will print. But, if a SPLF
completes, and another SPLF comes along, we have to do the turn off and
turn on thing again. Before we do the turn off, turn on, the status of
the SPLF is SND.



Thanx again,

Nick

Remote outqs don't use *DEVDs.

Note that it is possible to set up a dummy *DEVD for use with applications
that only work with *DEVDs
and not *OUTQ. But it doesn't sound like that's what you had.

Are you sure you're not using remote outqs?

You can check this by using CHGOUTQ NAME, and then pressing enter
multiple times till you see all settings..

I don't think a Windows Server upgrade can affect your *DEVDs.

Subject: Creating *LAN printer descriptions

Hello everyone,

I'm back with my "favorite" subject, printers.

Our Network guy did an upgrade to our Printer Server, from NT to 2003,
and
everything blew up.

Somehow, the network blew away all of my Printer Device
Descriptions on
our AS/400 for any printer that was set up as a *LAN printer. All of
these printers are Intemec 3400s, whick we use for labels.
My Outqs are

still there and so are the Writers. Just no Device Descriptions. I
didn't think this was even possible.

Where I am stuck is setting up the Device Descriptions for
the Printers
themselves. I am trying to set them up with DEVCLS = *LAN,
PORT = 9100,

LANATTACH = *IP, but what should I use for TYPE and MODEL, MFRTYPMDL,
and
SYSDRVPGM?

Thank you for your help!!

I still hate printers.



Thanx,

Nick


PS, We are at V4R5 and I call our box and AS/400 because that
is what it

says on the front of it. The company is too cheap to upgrade.
