6. 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:
•
The queue pauses when you power off the print server for no apparent
reason.
reason.
•
The print server generates excessive LAT traffic on the network
•
Only one host computer can access the print server, others are locked
out.
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

13. If you can print successfully from PATHWORKS using DOS but have
problems printing from Windows, try increasing the Device Not
Selected and Transmission Retry timeouts from the Windows Printer
Manager (select Printer Setup, select the desired printer, and press the
Connect button).
