Re: Print AS/400 Overlay on HP attached through network-IPDS?

["Doug Cosgrove" <DCosgrove@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Kathie,

Your printer is defined as an *SCS which does not support overlays. The
printer has to be defined as *IPDS or *AFPDS. You will need to get an IPDS
card for the HP printer.

I know this will work with a directly attached printer. I do not know if
this will work on a network printer.

Hope this is a start for you.
