AS400 printing to HP Deskjets

We are a new site, but went thru an upgrade from B7332 to Xe before going live. On B7332 we tested printing to HP Deskjets and it worked OK. After the upgrade we are unable to print to Deskjets. The printing comes out as garbage. Printing to a lazer is OK. We have put in calls to JDE but the response is slow. Has anyone had a similar problem and been able to solve it?

you cannot print to a deskjet printer, unless it is hooked to a hpjetdirect
external server. The only printing we have been able to print is to a
network printer.

Check the jdelist archives. I sent something in on this once before. Under
Xe you have to make sure the OneWorld printers are setup just right. There
are 3 different ways I found printers to be incorrectly defined following
the Xe conversion but they were easy to fix. Let me know if you don't find
the thread.

Make sure that you have the two printer definition records in the "Work with
Printers" set to PostScript with Ascii encoding.
