Bill,
We replaced an IP attached printer with an HP LaserJet Pro 4001 dn and the writer would start with a *MSGW for an indication of a Printer Error. We tried to make various changes to the Device Description, but nothing seemed to work. It is our understanding that HP has changed their printer configuration, so we got another HP printer (M507) and it is finally working. I am not sure if this helps but maybe someone else has more information.

Hello all,
So we're having a printer issue that has just completely stumped me. Here's what's happening. We have a printer that is network-connected and has its own IP address on our system. We have an output queue set up for that printer. In the past few days we've started seeing error messages that said "Problem with SPKPRT", SPKPRT being the name of the printer. Doing a "Retry" just causes the error again. We can successfully ping the printer from both the IBM i side and the Windows side. People can still print Windows documents to the printer with no problem. In the past when I've seen this type of error it's usually been some sort of a hardware issue with the printer. We have access to the configuration of the printer and the printer itself is not reporting any sort of hardware issue. I should mention that this printer is at a remote location (the printer is at our facility in Nevada and I'm in Ohio). Here is the config of the printer:
Device description . . . . . . . . : SPKPRT

Anyone out there have any thoughts on what might cause this? I've heard the suggestion to change this to a remote output queue, but doing this would cause us to lose the use of the workstation customization object we're using, and to define any other specifics about the printer itself. Any input on this would be most appreciated. Thanks!
