No guarantees.... but is it an environment variable called PDHOST? PD_SOCKET may be required as well.

I've downloaded the AFP Printer Driver for Windows and the Infoprint Port Monitor that IBM provides. So far I have been unable to get these tools to communicate with a printer. I suspect part of the problem may come from the Infoprint Server is running on lpar TEST yet the PSF printers are started on lpar PROD. Here's where I'm at. On my pc I've defined a new printer. I right click to set properties. Data on the General tab looks ok. Under Sharing I specify do not share. Under Advanced my driver is Infoprint 4000 AFP, Spool says start print immediately and enable advanced printing features was chosen. My problem is with the Ports tab. The printer I've defined is checked. When I click on Configure Port the Print Server is Infoprint Server for z/OS and under Server Connection the Host Port is 515. I don't have anything for the Host Name. If I click on "Refresh Printer Selection List" I get a pop-up with "Enter the host name of the LPD server". No matter what IP address I put in there I time out. Does anyone have any ideas how I can get this to connect? I'm just about out of guesses. My thanks.
