Hi.

 

I am trying to delete a temporary data set as 

 

Proc Datasets Library = <libname> NOLIST NOWARN;
Delete <data set>;
Run;

 

Not every time, but I encounter the below error..say one out of 5 times i execute this code. By the way I am running 5-6 SAS parallel sessions which all include this delete step. However, this error is not affecting the next steps of the program

 


ERROR: The setting of the SYSPRINT option to "<<printer name>>" will be ignored
because "<<printer name>>" is not the name of a currently installed printer.
This error may be due to changes in SYSPRINT option syntax.
Please refer to your host companion for details of those changes.

What could be the reason and how to rectify?

Will try this. But why is it redirecting to printer? I am only exporting my log and using PRINTTO in the beginning.
