- Everything looks OK, so I suspect the problem is with the server. The inability
- to copy to the device makes me even more suspicious.
-
- Did you set the device /nospool before copying? If not, the copy really still
- just uses the queue.
-
- 1. Is the port on the server set up as ACCESS REMOTE? Is is AUTOeverything
- DISABLED?
-
- 2. Is another system accessing this printer? Are they releasing the port or
- keeping the link open. Connect to the TS (TSM, NCP CONNECT, or a physical
- connection) and SHOW SESSION PORT 8. If there is a session, someone (or
- something) has already grabbed the port.
