DEFINING THE PRINTER TO THE HOST: TCP/IP ATTACHMENT

•

•

•

There is proper connectivity to the Multi-station Access Unit (MAU), if one is being used.

The IP address used to define the printer in PSF is unique in the TCP/IP network.

The IP address of the AS/400 system is unique. If not, consult your network administrator to resolve the address problem.

Correcting for printer performance issues – AS/400

Should you notice any printer performance problems—e.g., throughput speed degradation, check the areas listed in the following table.

Table E-20.Components to check for printer performance problems

LAN	If the printer is on a LAN that also has a large number of other
	devices attached to it, the high levels of traffic on the LAN can
	cause printer speed degradation. Consider moving the printer to
	a LAN that does not have so much activity on it.
AS/400 to LAN	If the speed of the link connecting the LAN with the printer
attachment	attached to the AS/400 system is slow, this could be a
	bottleneck. Review your network configuration diagrams to look
	for any potential bottlenecks.
