  • Assigning a printerto a Client Access session

    I?m new to the setting up of a new client access session and I need to have the attached PC printer work as an AS/400 printer to this PC. Any help would be appreciated.

    Assigning a printerto a Client Access session

    Emil, It is a simple process and should be a part of any emulation package. When you set up a Client Access session, it asks you whether it is a Display or a Printer. For Client Access, the only other thing you need to do is to tell it which of your pre-defined Printers you wish to assign to this printer session. Bill

      I think what Bill means is that it would be a good idea to give your printer a Workstation ID e.g PRT04 If you don't there is a good chance that your printer will be called something like QPADEXXXX

        You must name the printer session as part of the PC5250 session creation. We use the simple id of P with the asset no. of the PC that the session runs on. This simplifies the fault finding. We also so use the host print transform, so that the AS/400 converts the data stream. Test ALL the possible prints on the LAN printer before use. The conversion and formating may need some adjusment to suit the user.

          What if the printer model is not in the list supplied. Is there anyway to download something like a driver from the web site? Thanks
