Chapter 5: SCS Printer Emulation Operation
When the LaserJet printer is powered off, the IBM host will not
immediately end the connection. After a time-out period that varies from
15 minutes to several hours, the IBM host will eventually end the
connection and allow reconnection. If the printer is powered up within
this period, the IBM host will refuse to allow the 5250 SCS printer
emulation session to reconnect.
To cause the IBM host to immediately end the connection and allow
reconnection, either of two processes may be used:
Vary off the Device
1. End the writer.
2. Vary off the device.
3. Cycle the power on the printer.
End the Telnet session:
1. End the Telnet session by using the eServer i5, iSeries AS/400’s
TCPADM command. (You may also use the NETSTAT command,
option 3 as an alternate.)
2. At the command line, type GO TCPADM, take selection “7”, then “3”.
3. Find the IP address for the LaserJet that runs the 5250 SCS Printer
Emulation session, then execute option “4 - End of Session”.
4. Cycle the power at the printer.
