<h1 class="topictitle1">Configure Telnet printer sessions</h1>
<div><p>This topic gives you instructions for attaching to printers on
the iSeries™ server
from remote locations on the network.</p>
<div class="section"><p>In order for Telnet Printer emulation to work, a virtual iSeries printer
device needs to be created (it will be a 3812 or 5553 device). Such a device
is needed to generate the printer datastreams sent for the printer session.
Printers used with Telnet printing can be attached to the PC or attached to
the same network as the PC. Telnet printer sessions negotiate with a remote
Telnet client on a system that supports Telnet printer emulation.</p>
<p>Telnet
printer sessions deliver the printer data stream between the two systems as
either EBCDIC or ASCII depending on the preferences of the requesting client.</p>
<p>Telnet
printer sessions are active immediately after Telnet initialization. Printing
functions do not require user profiles and passwords. However, if your security
requires it, you can use Telnet exit point programs to block printer sessions
from starting.</p>
<p>When using Telnet printer sessions, all print data is
spooled to a printer writer queue for printing. You cannot print directly
to a print device. When use the printer file commands to create printer file
(CRTPRTF), change printer file (CHGPRTF), and overwrite printer file (OVRPRTF),
you must use the default SPOOL (*YES) parameter. Also, Telnet sets the printer
writer or output queue to the same name as the printer.</p>
<p>To set up your
Telnet printer sessions, follow these steps:</p>

<ol><li><span>Check to make sure that the TCP stack is active. If not, issue
the STRTCP command to start the TCP stack.</span></li>
