Should you notice any printer performance problems—e.g.,
throughput speed degradation, check the areas listed in the
following table.
Table F-19. Components to check for printer performance
LAN If the printer is on a LAN that also has a large number of
other devices attached to it, the high levels of traffic on the
LAN can cause printer speed degradation. Consider
moving the printer to a LAN that does not have so much
activity on it.
AS/400 to If the speed of the link connecting the LAN with the printer
LAN attached to the AS/400 system is slow, this could be a
attachment bottleneck. Review your network configuration diagrams to
look for any potential bottlenecks.
The following IBM documents, referenced in this section, can
provide additional information on AS/400-to-IPDS printer
connectivity.
