13 - 15 TROUBLESHOOTING

Intermittent random queue pauses can be caused if the VMS 
LAT port is not set up as spooled device. Type 

SHOW DEVICE 

LTAxxx

 from the VMS console; if the device is not spooled, type 

SET DEVICE/SPOOL LTAxxx

 command. (One exception:  

PATHWORKS for MACINTOSH queues should not be set up 
with the LTA device set as spooled).

7

Make sure that 

PROCESSOR

=

LATSYM

 is enabled on your VMS 

print queue if you get any of the following symptoms:

n

The queue pauses when you power off the print server for no 
apparent reason.

n

The print server generates excessive LAT traffic on the network

n

Only one host computer can access the print server, others 
are locked out.

8

If the VMS LAT symbiont abruptly terminates and shuts down 
one or more queues, the problem may be the result of the 
inability of the LAT symbiont to handle the load (particularly if 
you are printing heavy graphics). Try creating multiple LAT 
processors (copy the LATSYM.EXE file) and splitting the load 
among these processors.

9

If your VMS graphics printouts are distorted, make sure that you 
have the LTA port set for PASSALL, PASTHRU, and TAB.

10

If you are having trouble printing PostScript files with VMS 
(PostScript errors or no printout), make sure that you have the 
form set for NOTRUNCATE and NOWRAP. Also, make sure 
you are not trying to print a flag page (unless you are using 
DCPS) since the flag page in the LAT symbiont is a non-
PostScript text file.

11

If you are having trouble printing PostScript files (for example, 
from DECprint Supervisor or from a Windows-based 
PATHWORKS PC), try disabling binary mode on the printer with 
the command 

SET PORT P1 BINARY DISABLED

.

12

If you are printing across a wide area network bridge (for 
example, Vitalink) and you get paused or stalled queues, 
increase the print server circuit timer to 120 milliseconds with 
the command 

SET SERVER TRANSMIT 120

.
