Overview

This document is designed to provide basic information regarding printing from an IBM AS/400 server running the OS400 operating system V5R1 and higher to the Panasonic DP-2310, DP-3010, DP-3510, DP-3520, DP-4510, DP- 4520, DP-6010 and DP-6020 multi-functional devices. Since many volumes of data exist on printing from an AS/400, it is intended that this document only summarize the basics of printing specifically to these devices.

To better understand the AS/400 printing environment, there will be some new terms and definitions you may or may not be familiar with. This document will explain some of those as it progresses but will also provide these in an appendix at the end. Some of these terms need to be defined first so let’s start with those that cause the most head-scratching, the TLA’s (Three Letter Acronyms).

All of the command structures within the operating system can be broken down to a TLA or an XTLA (eXtended Three Letter Acronym). When these TLA’s are combined, they form a command that can be typed on the command line to execute an internal program or menu. Some of these are:

CFG = Configure

CRT = Create

WRK = Work with

END = End or stop

STR = Start

GO = Go to a menu

Some of the various menus or programs also use TLA’s or XTLA’s:

STS = Status program

DEVD = Device Description program

WTR = Printer Writer program

And the devices that exist are also referenced in the same manner:

OUTQ = Output Queue

PTR = Printer

SPLF = Spooled Files

When you put these items together, you form a command structure. An example would be:

CRTOUTQ = create and output queue

WRKSPLF= work with spooled files

WRKCFGSTS = Work with Configured Status’
