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.

Table
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. |
