Carl,

What version of OS are you on? We are on V5R2.

Seems to be an issue with this printer and the last PTF Group.

We are having the same issue since loading the last print group.

Works fine when we move the splf to a different printer.

BTW - It appears to be any splf with 20 or more pages and it sometimes
works.

Support Line suggested we upgrade the firmware on the printer, but that
didn't help. I actually went to Office Depot and purchased a new P2055DN
today, but now I think I will take it back and buy a different model.

I added an HP2055dn to our iseries to print checks. The device is
configured
as follows:

CRTDEVPRT DEVD(HP2055230) DEVCLS(*LAN) TYPE(3812) MODEL(1) +

LANATTACH(*IP) PORT(9100) ATTACH(*DIRECT) ONLINE(*YES) +

FONT(011 *NONE) FORMFEED(*AUTOCUT) SEPDRAWER(*FILE) +

PRTERRMSG(*INQ) MSGQ(*CTLD) ACTTMR(170) INACTTMR(*SEC15) +

LINESPEED(19200) WORDLEN(8) PARITY(*NONE) STOPBITS(1) +

TRANSFORM(*YES) MFRTYPMDL(*HP4000) PPRSRC1(*LETTER) +

PPRSRC2(*NONE) ENVELOPE(*NONE) ASCII899(*YES) +

IMGCFG(*IMGA02) CHRID(*SYSVAL) RMTLOCNAME('192.168.0.230') +

SYSDRVPGM(*HPPJLDRV) TEXT('HP Laserjet P2055dn .230') +

PUBLISHINF(*UNKNOWN *UNKNOWN *UNKNOWN *UNKNOWN *BLANK +

(*UNKNOWN))

The external printer file uses both a fntchrset for the micr font along
with
an overlay for headings and such (no logos).

Prior to printing I issue:

CHGPRTF FILE(APCHKPRTP) FRONTOVL(APLIB/APCHKOVL *SAME *SAME)
OUTQ(HP2055230) hold(*yes)

I am having 2 problems. The first being that the printer pauses after
printing X number of pages. The spool file has 12 pages, it printed 2 then
paused, then 3 more and paused, etc.

The second problem is that when it first starts printing, I get a CPA403D
(Operator action required on device HP2055230 (C R)) message in which I
respond with an "R". When the checks print, it doesn't print the micr font.
It prints the raw data (C999391C A990091998A 99009998C). If I then try to
reprint from the same spool file, it prints correctly.

Can anyone shed some light on either of these issues?
