 AS400 Printing extra pages
AS/400 printing, HP LaserJet 1200, Printers
We have an AS400 shop that has HP Laser Jet 1200 Printers printers. We are printing from the 400 and sporadically the printers stop printing, it is like their spool file is full and it just stops. We can do a wrksplf and clear it out, stop and start the printer and it will begin printing. Is there a setting of somekind or something else that could be causing this?

We’ve hashed through that doc a few times. Somewhat helpful but very, very dry. We recommend RPM to any of our clients that need better as400 printing. Brooks develops this software and we’ve been installing on various locations over the last few years specifically for iSeries/zSeries printing. They have a free trial and you can get it at their AS400 printing site I believe. They also have a main site.

Best of luck on the 400 printing world!

There are at least 30 HP printers attached to our AS/400 via TCP/IP. Once in a while a printer hangs up but it is very rare. Our printers are attached via the output queue with an IP address; no device description. How are your printers attached?
