Table46. LPD Problem Analysis (continued)

Problem Cause Solution
Spooled file is not on the print queue
that you requested vDestination print queue name is
misspelled.
vUser did not have authority to the
requested print queue.
vThe requested print queue is not in
the user ID library list path.
vDisplay the messages sent by LPD
to check where the spooled file
was placed (you must be logged
on the system where the LPD
server is running to see the
messages).
vIf you are logged on with the same
user ID as was used to issue the
LPR command, use the Display the
Message (DSPMSG) command. If
you are logged on to a different
user ID than was used to send the
LPR command, you must use the
DSPMSG userid command if the
user ID exists. If the user ID does
not exist, use DSPMSG
QTCP/QTMPLPD. QTMPLPD is the
default user profile used if there
are any problems with the client
profile.
vIf the messages are not able to
help locate the file or the problem,
then check the print queue
QPRINT in library QGPL. This is
the default destination where all
files are spooled if there are any
problems with the requested print
queue.
LPD receives only a portion of the
spooled file sent The LPR job failed before sending all
the data. LPD assumes that when the
connection is closed, all the data has
been sent.
Send the spooled file again.
Spooled files do not show up on the
receiving system from a non-AS/400,
even though LPR indicates it was
successfully sent.
If the sending user ID does not match
a user ID on the receiving system,
LPD uses QTMPLPD user profile to
spool the file. However,if the
QTMPLPD user profile does not exist,
or the PUBLIC authority is set to
*EXCLUDE, the file is not spooled.
2
Change the authority for the
QTMPLPD profile to *OBJOPR, or
find a system with a matching user ID
to accept the spooled files.
LPD does not run on anAS/400
system with a QSECURITY system
value of 50.A pointer error is
received when attempting to access a
user domain object in library
QUSRSYS.
The QALWUSRDMNsystem value
(Allow user domain objects in
libraries) does not have QUSRSYS
library specified. This value is
required for the LPD servers to
access the user spaces that hold print
data. The LPR clients also need to
access user spaces in the QTEMP
library.
Change the QALWUSRDMNsystem
value to specify the QTCP library.
