Chapter 8 AS/400 Troubleshooting

Spooled Print File Remains In PND Status
Check the output queue with the command:
WRKOUTQ queuename
This typically indicates that PSF/400 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/400 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 AS/400 and the
printer are active.
Spooled Files Disappear Without Printing
To resolve this problem:
•Check that the correct printer queue name and correct IP
address have been used.

•

Ping
the IP address. If the
ping
is successful, disconnect the
network cable from the printer/print server, and
ping
the
address again. If the
ping
is still successful, there is another
printer with that IP address on the network.
Data Is Being Clipped

Control) parameter to *YES in the CRTPSFCFG command (V3R2,
V3R7, or V4R1).
