If you are using device SAPWIN - widows via SAPLPD, then you need to use access method F or G for front-end printing.

If printing without the windows front end is required (eg Background Jobs), select a different device type - eg POST2 for postscript or PCL4 seem to work with a lot of printers.

There is a 40+ page OSS note that lists printer types and the device type you should use if these standard ones do not work.
