===== Printer Issues =====

=== My HP 5si doesn't print my macro or prints it incorrectly. ===
Try generating the macro with a HP 5si driver instead of the recommended HP 4 driver. Generally we would use the HP 4 driver. But for this case (which is the exception not the rule) use the HP 5si driver.

=== WRKWTR Command Fails with Message CPF34DC RC3406 ===
This document discusses a problem where running the Work with Writers (WRKWTR) command can result in message CPF34DC, An error occurred during a mutex operation on writer &1. The return code is 3406. 

Running the Work with Writers (WRKWTR) command to work with all writer, or doing a "WRKWTR WTR(writer-name)" to work with a specific writer job, can result in message CPF34DC - An error occurred during a mutex operation on writer &1. The return code is 3406.

**Resolving The Problem**
This is a known problem with V5R1M0; however, it can occur at newer releases, particularly if experiencing performance problems that involve lock contention issues. 

This condition can be circumvented by ending the writer that is mentioned in message CPF34DC with the When to end writer (OPTION) parameter set to *IMMED. For example, type the following on the operating system command line:

ENDWTR  WTR(writer-name) OPTION(*IMMED) and press the Enter key.  

**Recommended Fixes**
Downloading and applying the latest recommended fixes for i5/OS Print, which includes but is not limited to the Print Group PTF, can help in preventing this situation.

**Additional Fix information:**
If the error persists.  The system resources for the SPOOL pool might be set too low.   

Researching further, there were several other cases that reported message CPF34DC with reason code 3406 that found SPOOL pool was set very low. Meaning, there was not enough resources to work with the writer. Please check the size of SPOOL pool using WRKSHRPOOL command.

  *  The size of the pool should minimally be 1% of the total main storage size. For example, if the total main storage size (shown at top of WRKSHRPOOL screen) is 4000.00, then the size of SPOOL pool should minimally be 40.

  *  If SPOOL pool is not at least 1% of the total main storage size, increase it by typing over the value from WRKSHRPOOL screen.

Press F11=Display tuning data and make sure SPOOL pool has 1.00 for the MINIMUM size. Again, to make a change, type over the value from the WRKSHRPOOL F11 screen.

Ensure that the QPFRADJ system value is set to 2 or 3:

DSPSYSVAL SYSVAL(QPFRADJ)

2=Adjustment at IPL and automatic adjustment

3=Automatic adjustment

Most often, the recommendation is to set it to 3. Use CHGSYSVAL or WRKSYSVAL option 2=Change to change the value, if needed.
===== iDocs =====

See [[qaidocs | iDocs Questions and Answers]]

===== iChecks =====

See [[qaichecks | iChecks Questions and Answers]]

===== iBar =====

=== 3of9 Barcode is not printing out on manual merge. ===
Make sure you are not using field mapping. Use X Y locations instead.

=== The barcode doesn't scan properly. ===
Make sure your barcode scanner is configured for that particular font (ie: 3of9, 2of5, etc...). Some barcode scanners might need to be realigned with a status page. Make sure that there are no large gaps between your barcode lines.

=== Why does my 2of5 barcode print out extra zeros? ===
Make sure you are not mapping blank spaces. Blank spaces create extra zeros. 2 of 5 also adds extra zeros if the string isn't an even number. Odd numbered barcode strings don't scan in so by default the scanner will add an extra zero to make it an even number.



===== iMail =====

See [[qaimail | iMail Questions and Answers]]

===== iPDF =====

=== My PCL to PDF Conversion looks awful! ===
Make sure you are not using a macro that uses color. Go to your iDocs Designer software and verify that all lines, text, and boxes are black and white and not color.


===== Positive Pay =====

=== What is the positive pay id? ===
The positive pay id is a prompt that should only be used when the Positive Pay module has been implemented. Contact your account manager for details.


=== Positive Pay Set fails intermitantly. ===
Change  the recovery frequency and duration with CHGLINBSC.

===== iFax =====

=== Need to know how to start and stop the PC iFAX server from within a program. ===
To start the iFAX PC server use the command in the library FMG called:

STRPCSVR

To end the iFAX PC server use the command:

ENDPCSVR

==== RightFax Interface ====
=== Need to configure RightFAX ===
When configuring, use UNIX type print commands.


===== Check Secure =====

=== My Check Secure device is not printing out the correct logo and signature or none at all. ===
Make sure your macro ID numbers are within the ranges of 100-998 with the exception of 201 and 202 which are reserved numbers and should NOT be assigned. If the printer is hooked into a PC (instead of ethernet) then see if you can use it only as a network printer. If that still doesn't work try using a good quality bi directional parallel printer.
