Managing AS/400 printing forms

Question:

How can I manage the jobs with different forms? Using RPM Remote Print Manager, the AS/400 doesn't send any warning about the change of form.

Answer:

Even working with different vendors, we have not yet established whether or not the AS/400 LPR can send form information. We are exploring ways to get this information from the '400 directly.

Until then, you might investigate using "styles" with RPM Remote Print Manager®. This would make it easier to manage a number of different layouts, even though it would not be automatic.
