TN3270E Print Jobs Have "Spooling" Status and Do Not Print (316746)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft SNA Server 4.0 SP3
- Microsoft SNA Server 4.0 SP4
- Microsoft Host Integration Server 2000
This article was previously published under Q316746 SYMPTOMS
When a host application sends multiple TN3270E print-job requests that
are delimited by a begin bracket (BB) and end bracket (EB) sequence,
the first print job may print successfully, but the next print job
remains in the print queue with a status of "spooling."
NOTE: This issue affects only TN3270E print sessions, not TN3287
sessions.
CAUSE
This behavior occurs because the TN3270 service fails to send the
PRINT-EOJ data type to a TN3270E print emulator to signal the end of a
print job when it receives the EB sequence from the host application.
