RE: C/A Printer connection died

Don,

Is there some special reason that the two devices running on the
JetDirect server must print through the PC? Why not create *lan print
devices so your host can directly manage the printer connection? I
pretty much HATE managing print sessions with Access for i.

Have you tried reboot of the print server, or end and restart your
writer on the IBM i?

Actually - both of the printers running off of the HP Printservers are
NOT working for IBM I printing.

Subject: C/A Printer connection died

I have 3 HP printers with IBM i access via C/A.

Two of them run off of HP Print servers, and the 3rd one is LPT1 cabled.

The C/A printer sessions are on ALL running on the same PC - the one
with the LPT1 connection as well.

These 3 printer sessions have been running flawlessly for more than 3
years, yet today, one of the printers connected via a printserver will
not print. Everything looks 'ready' - just as it always has - but when
a job is released (or sent to) that jobq, it just goes to (or returns
to) a HELD status.

We are able to print PC documents to this printer - so network
connectivity is there .....
