Hi! I have an RPG III program who has the following standard
declaration:
FQSYSPRT O F 132 OF PRINTER
and when it runs the CPF5729 message is issued that says that it is
not possibile to allocate the printer and invites me to verify with
wrkobjlck. then the CPF4128 is issued.
I do wrkobjlck, and i see the printer held in a *exclrd...

I do really do not understand this behaviour.
Does anybody have an idea?

Sounds like you've specified SPOOL(*NO) and the writer is started to an
output queue.

Are you wanting to spool the report to an output queue? If so, ensure
you have SPOOL(*YES) specified.

I have checked my QSYSPRT attributes and spool is *YES.
I'm not wanting to spool the report to an output queue, i just want to
print it, but that CPF message continues to be issued.
thanx

Use OVRPRTF to specify SPOOL(*NO) and DEV(xxxxxx) where xxxxx is the name of
a printer device that is varied on but has *NO* writer active.
