ETHERNET TO TWINAX/COAX PRINT SERVER
0111 = Host Telnet session lost
Usually means that the printer has been varied off at the host. Also, if the host has
gone down, or if there is a communication (for example, router) failure.
2777 = Damaged device description
8902 = Device not available
This code appears when the print server attempts to start a session for a printer
whose name duplicates the name of a printer already active on the host. In many
cases, this status code means that the print server has been powered-off and then
powered back on within a few minutes.
This code could also mean that a “reset” command has been sent from the
PrintControl utility without ending the writer and varying off the printer first.
When the print server is turned off, it takes the AS/400 about 10 minutes to
determine that the TCP/IP sessions for the printers are no longer active. If the
Black Box print server restarts while the host shows the old printer sessions still
active, requests for new sessions will be rejected with this code. You can recover by
doing one of the following:
• Wait 10 minutes before powering the print server back on.
• At the AS/400, manually terminate the old TCP/IP sessions.
• If the print server is configured for automatic 5-minute session start retries
(the default), just wait for a successful retry.
• If automatic retries are disabled, use one of the other available methods of
initiating a session restart, after a suitable wait.
• Avoid the problem by allowing the print server to end its TCP/IP sessions
gracefully before powering it off. Do this by powering-off all attached printers
2 minutes or more before powering off the print server itself.
