IBM6400-012 Drucker druckt nicht

[Torben78]

Das passiert sicher meistens wenn er eine Weile nicht gedruckt hat.
Evtl. kann man mit den Timeout Werten am System noch etwas bewirken. Ist es ein SCS oder IPDS eingerichteter Drucker?

[sudden]

Es ist ein IPDS-Drucker.

Vorschlag für die Einrichtung von IBM 6400 und 6500 über Twinax/IPDS:

Using iSeries IPDS Twinax connection configuration sheets for the Infoprint 6500 Printer
Example for creating a device description for IPDS Twinax printing.

This document describes how to set up the AS/400 (V5R1 and above) for IPDS printing with a Twinax connection. If the printer is be configured with "AFP", "Yes" (Advanced Function Printing) it is recommended to create also a "PSFCFG" or use an existing PSFCFG where "Page Size Control" is controlled by the host.

AS/400 Main menu.

Use the CRTPSFCFG command '+ F4 or Enter' to create a PSFCFG for the 6500 IPDS Twinax printer.

Fill in the table as below, use the F24 (more keys) and F9 (all Parameters) to have all parameters listed.
