Re: Printing JPG's again -- MIDRANGE-L

So something happened. Originally I was in my home office printing the
JPEG's on my dell laser fine. I went to the office, tried to print on
their printer and it would not work. I struggled a few days trying to get
it to work.

I came home and it's not working on my printer either. Either I've lost my
mind or I changed something that broke it.

If I email the spoolfile to myself as a PDF it looks fine.

I noticed now that I'm back home my laser print starts printing immediately
when I release the spool file. previously it would take 10-20 seconds to
start printing, almost like it took awhile to send the data. Is there
something on the Printer device or setting on the IBM i that would make it
not send that data down?

Any help or ideas would be appreciated

Try changing the printers job timeout (on the printer) to the max 300
seconds)
You may have such a tiny bit of memory in there the spool not processed
before timeout
I've had to do that for many printers

Go down to "Error Messages for *LAN PJL Device Descriptions" and click to
expand (I this web feature... IE sometimes hangs) Look for the CPD337C -
many possibilities

Good Luck

Thanks for that link Jim. My printer that works (2135cn) and the

(5100cn) both have the same properties in the list.

Here is my printer configuration. I'm lost right now.

WRKWTR, then F17 to see the writer job, then option 10 to look at the
job log. If IBM i is diagnosing something, it should be in there.
Otherwise, it's probably on the printer's side.

To that end, I see that the 5100cn allows Postscript - is the printer
somehow stuck in that mode as opposed to PCL mode?
