Title: IBM Network 17 (PCL) printer unavailable
Post by: WyRon on October 15, 2003, 12:13:27 PM

Hi, there
I have brought an outphased IBM 17 home from work, and set it up (with the correct IP-address!) in SME 5.6U4 with 'raw' as the 'printer name'.
When I try to connect to it from my Win2K-box, however, I get a message that the printer refuses admission (translated from Danish).
At first, in the install-process, the SME gives a 'ready' status, but when the driver (from the IBM homepage) is installed, and the printer added to the printers-folder on my W2K-box, it refuses admission.
Anyone have a clue, please ?

Greetings
Wyron
