Printing Problems
When troubleshooting printer problems, it may be helpful to print out the 2677 printer configuration
report by starting the printer session and clicking on the Printer Test button. This report shows all the
customized settings for the printer sessions emulation and driver. In addition, an additional page is
printed showing a test for CPI/ LPI as well as the EBCDIC and ASCII Symbol sets.
Problem
Solution
•
The AS/400 assigns a 3812-
printer device with a name of
QPADEVnnnn (where
nnnn is a 4-digit number).
If the Telnet Printer Name is left blank when
configuring the printer session, the AS/400 will create
a 3812 device but will give the printer the name of
QPADEVnnnn, with nnnn being a 4-digit number.
However, each time the I-O 5250 printer emulation
connects to the host, the nnnn number for the printer
may be different. This may cause problems where a
specific printer name is used in specifying the location
of printed output. I-O does not recommend that you
let the AS/400 create the printer name.

To correct the problem, from the Connection
Manager select the Configure tab and select the
printer. Click Edit and enter a valid name in the field
for IBM Host Printer Name. The I-O Configuration
Utility may also be used to correct this function.
