GRreat help, we finally got a connection and job completed, and print output
to the printer! However, it was all garbage output. Also it would not
allow a configuration with the uppercase T, I had to change that to a
lowercase t to get it to work. Here's some spec's.
printer is set to PCL5 it's a Lexmark OptraR
on the '400 side, our virtual session had host print transform set to *NO,
and no printer manufacturer defined, we tried it that way, then we changed
it to *YES and HP4, but evidentally it reconfigures the virtual device each
time as we checked it after our last run, and it retained the HP4 for
manufacturer model, but host print transform had been changed back to *NO.
You got us this far hope you can identify what else we're doing wrong.
Thanks
Mike
