- Microsoft SNA Server, versions 3.0, 3.0 SP1, 3.0 SP2, 4.0 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------


SYMPTOMS
========

The SNA Print service may log the following events in the Windows NT Event
Viewer Application log when it receives control codes from an AS/400 that it
does not support:

  Event ID: 4103
  Source: PPV5250
  Description: The print server does not support the control code 0xC8
  (Set Graphic Error Action).

  Event ID: 4103
  Source: PPV5250
  Description: The print server does not support the control code 0xD1
  (Set Graphic Character Set).

These events are logged as Stop events by the print service, even though they are
not an indication of a serious problem. The print service simply ignores these
control codes if they are contained in an AS/400 print job.

CAUSE
=====

Event ID 4103 is being logged as a serious stop error rather than a lower
priority informational event.

======

SP1, 3.0 SP2, and 4.0.
