For whatever reason, your AS/400 is disconnecting the lp5250d while
it's trying to work...
Is your AS/400 allowing printer sessions over the TN5250e interface? Is
anything showing up in QSYSOPR or in a job log in the spool? They might
shed some light on this.
Does your AS/400 allow auto-creation of virtual devices? (i.e. is the
QAUTOVRT system value set to a high enough number?) If not, are you
manually creating a device description, and does it match?
Your tracefile contains this line:
> <VAR>IMBMSGQLIB
This means that you have an "env.IMBMSGQLIB" set in your config file.
Oh yeah, you attached that too... good... yep, I'm right :)
That's obviously a typo, it should be "IBM" not "IMB". That could be part
of the problem. Worth a try.

The current Windows implementation does the same thing as scs2ascii. So,
it's just scs2ps and scs2pdf that are missing.
You can't currently use those under Windows. The way Windows handles
printing is very different from the way Unix does it, so those will need
to be changed somewhat to make them work in Windows. We simply haven't
had time to do it.

aside from that typo, this setup works on my system.
Good Luck!
