Hi
If it is PSF I would suggest to check the PRINTDEV
TIMEOUT=(REDRIVE|STOP) parameter
Still not see if it is a problem after some change or a new installation

We are using PSF software to print mainframe reports to the remote
printers.
The printers will become DRAINED after printing the reports and NETVIEW
automation will restart the printers.
But some printers are not getting restarted by NETVIEW during morning
hours and rest of the time its working fine.

DRAINED is a status used by VPS.
Printers may go into DRAINED/EDRAINED status following an error, which
is
Shown in the VPS log.

We have got many remote printers are configured to mainframe via TCPIP

With what? Are you using a output writer scraping data from JES2/3 or is
it
something which accepts output from STCs?
How are those printers connected via TCP/IP to your system? Via a pool
of IP
addreses or assigned LUs?
Fort the past 2 weeks we are getting lot of cases that these printers
are
becoming DRAINED after printing the reports instead of becoming
INACTIVE.
All of them? Some of them? Only after certain jobs/output? How do you
see
the status of those printers? Did you do an upgrade or change somewhere?
What level of z/OS and TCP/IP are you using?
Please let me know what could have gone wrong.
A lot, all the way from the output generators, through the data carriers
up to
the printers themselves, but then you gave too few information. See also
Linda's response too.
