PSF on z/OS has had trouble connecting to some Lexmark printers
without the port 9100 specification in the PRINTDEV specs. I
recently had the same problem with an IBM Infoprint 1120, which was
solved with the port statement as well. BTW, we use Infopriint
Server on z/OS to spool from z/Linux (and desktop, too) into the JES
queue where the high speed printers can do the work.

Hi,
Just for your information, we have 12000 (that�s it, twelve
thousend) printers.
They�re from Lexmark, IBM and Xerox. All of them have a problem with
the LPD internal
implementation. At some time the spool can not talk to the printer
anymore because it does not receive the ACK for the SYN it sends (we
can reproduce the problem
using OS/2 and Linux).
The solution, so far, is to print using the High Performance
port (9100 at the Lexmark -
I can�t remember the port for the other printers). To do that I
recomend you use CUPS to do the
job.
