PSF Terminates When Initialized

PSF Terminates When Initialized

If PSF terminates when you initialize it for IPDS printing and issues message PQT3603, check for the following error codes:

•Code 10 means an incorrect RMTSYS or RMTLOCNAME (V3R2, V3R7, or V4R1) has been specified for the printer.

•Code 15 means that PSF timed out waiting for the printer’s response. Check the value you entered for Activation Timer when using WRKAFP2, CRTPSFCFG (V3R2), or CRTDEVPRT

(V3R7 or V4R1).

•Codes 20-39 indicate a general communications failure. Make sure all of the components in your network are operational, such as routers. If necessary, call IBM technical support.

•Codes 40-59 indicate a logic error between PSF and the printer control unit. Contact IBM technical support.

Spooled Print File Remains In PND Status

Check the output queue with the command:

WRKOUTQ queuename

This typically indicates that PSF is waiting for a response from the printer. This can be verified by displaying the QSPL subsystem, WRKACTJOBSBS (QSPL). If the status of the PDJ job for the printer is SELW, then PSF is waiting for a response from the printer. Make sure that the printer is in ONLINE mode and that all network connections (for example, routers) between the iSeries and the printer are active.
