4 AS/400 Configuration for
an ASCII Printer
Overview
This chapter details a complete AS/400* configuration setup including:
1. Developing Line Descriptions with CRTLINETH
2. Configuring the AS/400 for TCP/IP
3. Configuring the AS/400 for Printing
4. Verifying Printing of AS/400
This document assumes no AS/400 printer configuration has been done.
If any configuration has been done, please follow the procedure to the
point at which continued configuration is required.
Developing Line Descriptions with CRTLINETH
For each LAN adapter on the AS/400, a line description needs to be
created for the Ethernet. This is required for Release V3R2 and V3R7.
If a line description already exists, make sure the SSAP list includes
default options “AA” and “12.” You must also know the LAN speed for the
AS/400 LAN adapter.
NOTE: To change a line description, you need to vary the line off before
making the change. After making the change, you need to vary
the line back on.
To change an existing line description, use the CHGLINETH command.
To create a line description, use CRTLINETH.
