InaCcotnivfiitgyuTraimtioenr (IInNsAtrCuTcTtiMonRs) Inactivity Timer (INACTTMR) This defaults to *ATTACH, but can be set to any value from 1 to 30 (minutes), as well as *SEC15 (15 seconds), *SEC30 (30 seconds) or *NOMAX (no maximum). This value determines when the print driver closes the connection to the printer (freeing it up to received spooled output from another source) once there are no OS/400 spooled files left in RDY (ready) status. It is recommended that this be set to *SEC15 so OS/400 will free up the printer 15 seconds after all RDY spooled files have been processed. Setting it to *NOMAX will cause OS/400 to maintain the connection until the writer ends, so the printer device will not be shared with other systems. Host Print Transform (TRANSFORM) This needs to be set to *YES so the OS/400 system's Host Print Transform (HPT) function will convert both SCS and AFPDS spooled files to the printer's data stream. Manufacturer Type and Model (MFRTYPMDL) This indicates the type of ASCII printer being used. This value is used by HPT to determine what ASCII controls to use when converting the spooled file from SCS or AFPDS to ASCII. The ASCII emulation setting on the printer is *IBM4203 for Proprinter. Remote Location (RMTLOCNAME) This should be set to the printer's IP address, host name or DNS name. If an IP address is used, it should be entered without leading zeros (for example, use 192.186.10.2 instead of 192.186.010.002). If an IP address is used, verify that OS/400 can reach the printer by using either the PING or Verify TCP/IP Connection (VFYTCPCNN) command with that IP address. If a host name or DNS name is used, verify that OS/400 can reach the printer by using either the PING or Verify TCP/IP Connection (VFYTCPCNN) command with that host name or DNS name. 245
