SYMPTOMS
When you stop and restart an APPC printer session, the printer session may remain in a Pending status.



CAUSE
The SNA Server Print server does not issue a TP_ENDED when the session is stopped. Therefore, the AS/400 writer is still active.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in Microsoft SNA Server version 4.0 SP3.



MORE INFORMATION
A TP_ENDED is issued when the print session is closed, as in the following trace:
