3. Ping the printer from an AS/400 workstation with the
command:
ping ip_address .
Where ip_address is the Internet address of the remote
system printer (the NIC) or the hostname of the printer (if you
put the hostname in the host entry table as directed in
“Configuring A TCP/IP Host Table Entry” on page 193).
4. If the printer cannot be pinged, proceed to “AS/400 ASCII
Troubleshooting” on page 202.
5. Use one of the following methods to send a spooled file to the
printer:
• Enter the LPR command on the AS/400 command line with
the appropriate parameters. See “To Use LPR Manually”
on page -194.
• Enter STRRMTWTR name on the AS/400 command line,
where name is the name of the AS/400 remote output
queue (not the printer Internet queue, as described on
“To Create An Automatic Remote Output Queue” on page
197).
• Use the WRKOUTQ command to send jobs.
