Another job might have grabbed the device and opened it before the spooler
could. See if there is a job attached to the device
:showdev 6
and if there is abort it
abortjob #-------

I have a class LP for Ldev 6, but I really have no printer  - I've been
getting along fine,
with the outfence at 14 and checking the spool files as needed.(except it
sure would be nice to print).  Until today, when inadvertantly, someone did
a SPOOLER LP;STOP.

Now I can open the Q alright, but when I  SPOOLER 6;START (or SPOOLER
LP;START) -  I
get the error "Device 0000006 unavailable (CIWARN 4604)"

Jobs just sit there in wait state, oh my.
