Limitations

z/OS Infoprint Server Operation and Administration
SA38-0693-00

Limitations

The limitations are:

  • If the operator holds or moves a print job that is printing, when the operator releases the print job, IP PrintWay™ tells the printer to start printing from the beginning of the print job.
  • If the operator stops IP PrintWay while some print jobs are printing, when you start IP PrintWay, IP PrintWay tells the printer to starts printing from the beginning of the print jobs.
  • If a network problem occurs while the printer is printing a print job, IP PrintWay might not be able to determine the number of pages that have printed. Therefore, additional duplicate pages might be printed.
  • The PJL enhancements are not fully supported if IP PrintWay runs on multiple systems in a sysplex. This is because if an error occurs after some pages have printed, and IP PrintWay retries the print job on another system in the sysplex, IP PrintWay cannot determine how many pages have already printed. In this situation, IP PrintWay tells the printer to start printing from the beginning of the print job, and the page count in the SMF type 6 record includes only the pages that printed during the last retry.
  • These older printers, and printers that use the same controller, support the PJL commands but do not return correct page information for each document. Therefore, the page count in the SMF type 6 record will be inaccurate, and some pages might not print if IP PrintWay resends data after an error. IP PrintWay does not write a warning or error message when a PJL option is selected for these printers.
