Printing Over LocalTalk Bridge Produces IOError (131074)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Windows NT Server 3.5
This article was previously published under Q131074 SYMPTOMS
If you send a print job from a computer running Windows NT 3.5 Server to a
LocalTalk-connected print device on the far side of a LocalTalk bridge, the
job does not print correctly. Instead, the job is truncated and a
PostScript IOError message appears on an additional page.
Print jobs may be effected differently. Some print jobs rarely encounter
the problem while others encounter it nearly every time. If you send the
same job several times and the problem occurs several times, the truncation
may appear at slightly different points in the document.
CAUSE
The Windows NT 3.5 Services For Macintosh print monitor (SFMMON.DLL) fails
to set the EOM bit after sending the last frame of print job data, before
sending the Close Connection Request.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows NT version 3.5.
This problem was corrected in Windows NT Server version 3.51.
