Re: Issues with new HP M404dn printer

[Bob Schwartz <rschwartz@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Mark, I was messing with the idea a device description/LAN printer.
I just prefer the Remote Output Queue method and was trying my best to make it work.

Well, your definition seems to be working. I just created it using your template command below.
All I changed was the name, IP address and the description. 

I just called the user to test and it seems to be working. 
She had a load paper prompt on the printer, which generated a message on the IBMi. 
Just had to press OK on the printer. I may have to dig into that a bit. 

Thank you so much for all of the help and suggestions. Bob
