Check the iSeries Access version on the PC. Also check that “Transform Print data to ASCII on iSeries” is selected and the make and model hase been selected.
Sounds like the system is not sure the printer session is ready or something.

Also, printer emulation uses the printer attached on your PC, so after spooling the file on the the AS/400 it will need take additional time to do the same on your PC (you can watch the progress by opening your Printers and Faxes window). Also, if you have a large spool file it will take WAY longer to spool on the PC compared to the AS/400. You can’t even come close to the speed of printing directly off the LAN.
