The PLU INHIBITED status shows that activation failed with some error sense sent by the device, you should be able to find a sense code message earlier at time of activation. To debug you need to trace the x/'0C' control vector on NOTIFY or ACTLU RU. Run VTAM internal trace with OPT=PIU or a BUFFER trace of the LU. Bottom line is that the printer responded that it was not capable with some part of the DLOGMODE (which suggests an AS/400 wrong definition for that device, different from the working ones unless the printer hardware requires some difference).
