Getting Started

Set the following items when first configuring the ethernet for use with an
iSeries running TN5250:
•
•
•
The IP address of the iSeries you are planning to use.
Example: store tn dest d1prn as400 192.75.11.1
The device description or queue name you want built on the iSeries for
the printer. This must be unique to the printer.
Example: store tn dest d1prn devicedesc MOCHA3812
Enable the printer to automatically connect to the iSeries when it is first
powered up or automatically reconnect if the original connection is lost.
Example: store tn dest d1prn autoconnect
In most circumstances, all other settings can be left as default. The printer
should be reset (powered off and on again) for the settings to take effect.
