 AS400 Local Printer Sessions
We print from AS400 to local PC Printer Sessions using (Client) Access for Windows V5R2. We have not been able to print to the newer mfr-labeled "Windows-only" inkjets. Any solutions? This seems to be a new standard for inkjets.

Answer Wiki:
Make a cheaper product (excuse me less-expensive) that doesn't have a processor and relies on your computer power and operating system to get its job done. That said - they are 'Windows' printers - NOT DOS [Disk Operating Service]. If the AS400 routines use the standard Windows APIs i.e hand off to 'Spooler' for processing they should work fine. If they don't it is usually a program that is trying to print directly to the printer and NOT use Windows. Try capturing the port the printer is connected to. That works sometimes. Good luck.
