How a Host Report is Routed to a LAN Printer

In a typical scenario that describes how Print Services routes a report, a host report is routed to a LAN printer in your company Sales department (Sales Printer).

Connect the LAN printer specified in the profile to the host specified in the profile. Reports that the host spools to the specified LU name (for example, SALES) print on the LAN printer (for example, Sales Printer).

LU Name

Specify the LU name of the host in the Printer Session Properties dialog box. Your host system administrator can provide you with an LU name (also known as the logical unit name) for the host printer.

Note:

LU names intended for use with Print Services are processed by the host TCP/IP package, and the TCP/IP package must support TN3270E or TN5250E protocols. For more information, consult with your host system administrator.
