I set up roughly 2 - 5 network printers every week and have not had any problems with the device being spooled out immediately after a doionow. One potential problem might be that the printer or external jet direct card would have to be power cycled if it was turned on before the doionow. I would be interested in hearing any comments or concerns that the support group has told you.

hi all!
i'm curious about something.... so, you've gone into sysgen
and added a printer (and a native network printer if it
matters, but i don't think so). the 'mode' field (in
sysgen) includes an 's' -- indicating the device is to be
spooled. after doing all the appropriate holds and keeps,
you exit sysgen and do a 'doionow' and viola (:-) -- a new
printer suddenly exists.
what i'm wondering is -- should that printer be spooled
(out)? (right now, no intervening spool-ish commands) i
always thought so, but i'm hearing otherwise from our remote
support folks. - d
