Print sessions are just a pass-through application, that take information from the iSeries host and route the document to a Windows printer already installed on the workstation.  Print sessions can also be used to write the document to a file on the hard drive.  To set what printer a session routes to, or to determine whether the correct printer is selected, follow these steps:
  1. Open the print session if it is not already open.  (Note: the session does not need to be signed in.)
  2. Click on the "File" menu.
  3. Open the "Printer Setup" option.
  4. Within this dialog, verify that the correct printer is selected (highlighted).
    1. The "Use Windows Default Printer" option should not be selected; this can cause issues between user profiles.
  5. Click "OK" to confirm the selection.
If this is a session that writes a file to the hard drive, such as for an eDOC receipt or loan printer, there are a few additional steps (these steps are automatically completed when using the "Create GOLD Printer" tool):
  1. From the "Printer Setup" dialog, the "Print To Disk - Separate" option should be selected.
  2. Click the "Setup" button.
  3. In the middle column, ensure the proper directory is selected.
  4. Click "OK."
  5. Click the "Select PDT" button.
  6. Ensure that the "basic_ascii.pdt" file is selected.
  7. Click "OK" twice.
