Unable to Use Host Print Transform After Applying SP2

ID: Q180940

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft SNA Server, version 3.0 SP2

SYMPTOMS

The 5250 print server Host Print Transform option does not work correctly after you apply SNA Server 3.0 Service Pack 2.

CAUSE

The new PRINTSESSIONAPPC record written when the Host Print Transform is enabled is not properly setting the PAEXTRA_EXTENDED bit in the dwExtra flag. Therefore, the 5250 print service creates a 5224 device instead of a 3812 device on the AS/400.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in SNA Server version 3.0.

This problem was corrected in the latest SNA Server version 3.0 U.S. Service Pack. For information on obtaining this Service Pack, query on the following word in the Microsoft Knowledge Base (without the spaces):
