4 PSF/400 AFP Printing Using TCP/IP

This chapter provides configuration guidelines for OS/400 using TCP/IP. The versions differ somewhat in the setup.

For the different OS/400 versions, use the cross-references below:

4.1, AS/400 Settings for Version 3.1 4.2, AS/400 Settings for Version 3.2 4.3, AS/400 Settings for Version 3.6 4.4, AS/400 Settings for Version 3.7 4.5, AS/400 Settings for Version 4.1 4.6, AS/400 Settings for Version 4.2 4.7, AS/400 settings for Version 4.3

Requirements:

Before IPDS printing using TCP/IP can be accomplished, the following points need to be checked:

•TCP/IP is installed and enabled

•The relevant PTFs are applied

•The WRKAFP2 command is compiled (for AS/400 3.1 and 3.6 only)

Details on how to verify these items can be found on the internet. Consult the following IBM web address for details:

In the Technical Information database, you find the following links:

•AS/400 Knowledge Base

This link directs you to the area of the Knowledge Base, which is specifically about Print. IBM Doc. No. 8414724, PTF Listing for AFP Printing is a good entry.

•Preventive Service Planning (PSP)

This link directs you to the area of the Knowledge Base about Cumulative PTF Package for all OS/400 versions. IBM Doc. No. 8203740, PTF Listing for TCP/LAN Printing is a good entry.
