If set to *INQ, then the
intervention (error) will require
an operator input to retry or to
cancel the writer. If the
parameter is set to *INFO, the
driver continues to retry until
the connection has been
established or TCP/IP has
closed the socket. If the
connection is eventually
successful, the intervention
message is attempted to be
removed from the message
queue and process continues.

Set *CONT for matrix printers.
Set *AUTOCUT for page
printers (laser).

5001 is the IPDS default port
of TGNet print servers.
