Re: C/A Printer connection died

[Jason Abreu <jason.abreu@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Are you using a SNA Host Server in between the iSeries and the printers?
I ran into trouble a while back with Microsoft stating that shared 
printers would not be supported by their Host Server any more.

This is not the case, is it?  Are the networked printers setup to talk 
directly to the iSeries?
