No resolution yet

I somewhat gave up! I am still going to re-visit if I ever get any free time! I temporarily solved my immediate need by purchasing an
additional MFC, an 8510DN - which works fine using the queue name of:
TEXT_P1 !!! Go Figure. There must be some difference in the internal printserver in the 7-series .vs. the 8-series since I was able to get it working on models: 8510DN and 8890DW!!!!
If I do ever get a resolution, I will post it!!!!!
