Thanks Roger, Still a little confused though. Upon looking at (SA38-0693-00) Infoprint Server Operation and Administraion, Using Infoprint Central, Work with Printers, IP PrintWay printers. (I can) start, stop, and redirect ... which does appear to be an admin function. Again, the change does not appear permanent. However, it may be as you said ... those functions are not available

Infoprint Central (what we call the GUI) is for working with jobs and printers for operations basically, but not for Adminstrator tasks. The book says, on that page: Infoprint Central lets users display information about, but not work with, these objects: * Printer definitions * Printer pool definitions * Infoprint Server daemons To make a permanent new IP address for one of the printer definitions, use the ISPF panels instead of Infoprint Central. You should be a member of the AOPADMIN group to change printer definitions in the inventory. See page 55 in that manual for more details. If you want to change the mapping of a host-name to an IP address, that would be done in your DNS instead of Infoprint. Changing the IP address for a printer definition in the ISPF panels does not require an IPL. As soon as you PF3 back out of the panel where you changed the printer definition, you will see a message like "Element was updated". As soon as you see that your printer definition modifications are in effect to be used. --Roger On Mon, Feb 12, 2018 at 12:14 PM, Adams, Anne (DTI) <[email protected]> wrote: > Hey Roger - > > People here want to be able to change the printer definitions (ie.
