That being said, I changed it to *HPCOLORLJ and we'll see what happens
late this afternoon.

All 3 recommended mfrtypmdl for the m603 are for b&w printers.

I would suggest your choice for the mfrtypmdl is not good for this
reason:
M652dn Enterprise is a color printer , as was the previous printer it
replaced.
M605 which you saw as "close to the same number" is black and white, but
is
Enterprise.
I've never had success using a b&w mfrtypmdl for a color printer, or visa
versa.
This is more like the M553dn Enterprise and the M750dn Enterprise
I would use the *LEXMARKC750 or *HPCOLORLJ - I had someone from IBM
tell
me years ago at Common that if they recommend multiple mfrtypmdls in the
online doc, the 1st one is the "most recommended..." - try them out.
Btw - the only time I've seen spooling where the printer did not complete
the printing, but the system spool was in SAV status (which indicates the
printer buffer accepted the whole spool) was if an operator, changing
paper,
hit a "clear" button...

Subject: HP M652dn printer - not printing entire spool file
All,
Background
==========
IBM i 7.3, current on PTFs. We use FormSprint to generate color
invoices.
We recently replaced an HP CP4025dn printer with an HP M652dn because the
old printer has had it.
For the new printer, I literally varied off the device, made 2 changes to
the device description, and varied it on. The 2 changes were to the TEXT
and MFRTYPMDL parms. A RTVCFGSRC of the new device description looks
like
this:
CRTDEVPRT DEVD(HP1) +
DEVCLS(*LAN) +
TYPE(3812) +
MODEL(1) +
LANATTACH(*IP) +
PORT(9100) +
ATTACH(*DIRECT) +
ONLINE(*YES) +
FONT(011 *NONE) +
FORMFEED(*AUTOCUT) +
SEPDRAWER(*FILE) +
PRTERRMSG(*INFO) +
MSGQ(*LIBL/PRTMSGS) +
ACTTMR(170) +
INACTTMR(*SEC15) +
LINESPEED(19200) +
WORDLEN(8) +
PARITY(*NONE) +
STOPBITS(1) +
TRANSFORM(*YES) +
MFRTYPMDL(*HP5SI) +
PPRSRC1(*LETTER) +
PPRSRC2(*LETTER) +
ENVELOPE(*NUMBER10) +
ASCII899(*NO) +
IMGCFG(*NONE) +
CHRID(*SYSVAL) +
RMTLOCNAME('192.168.0.181') +
USRDFNOPT(*IBMSHRCNN) +
SYSDRVPGM(*IBMSNMPDRV) +
TEXT('HP M652dn (HP1)') +
PUBLISHINF(*UNKNOWN *UNKNOWN *UNKNOWN *UNKNOWN *BLANK +
(*UNKNOWN))
The MFRTYPMDL of the old CP4025 printer was *LEXMARKC750 because that's
what
this page:
http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=nas8N1019534
recommended. The new printer, M652dn, is not listed. The closest I
could
find was M603dn which suggested a MFRTYPMDL of *RICOHAP3200 or *HP5SI or
*HP4000.
I picked *HP5SI just because.
The Issue
========
We're having no issues with most everything printed except invoices.
We use the printer to print invoices from the IBM i. A daily batch will
be
150-300 pages. Both days we have done this, it printed 120-150 pages of
the
spool file and skipped the rest. Went on to the next spool file as if
the
remaining pages did not exist. The spool file automatically goes to SAV
status, so I changed the PAGERANGE parm, released it, and got the rest of
the pages. There is nothing in the printer message queue. There is
nothing
in the printer event log.
This is the only IBM i spool file of this size as most reports are made
into
PDFs and emailed, so I don't have another to try. I have done 1 Windows
printout of 160 pages (the operator's guide for this printer) and it
completed fine.
Anyone got an M652dn attached to IBM i? Would changing the MFRTYPMDL do
anything? I don't want to just start making guesses.
Thanks.
