Sure, the problem (I think) is that I have 3 lpar regions that are lpr'ing to a common server (same IP address,port and queue).
The catch is that the server lpr destination (HOUSTON) is not really a printer but software that is emulating a printer. So the mainframe VPS definition for each lpar is for example: COMMTYPE=(TCPIP,LPD) TCPPRTR=HOUSTON What I am trying to distinguish is whether lpr'ing from 3 disparate sources to 1 destination is common practice. If it is then I can focus on the printer emulating software. Hope this clears it up a bit. Gil.
