Notes:
1. Only used to fill the user data (USRDATA) field of the spooled file created.
2. This command is only used when the destination system is an AS/400 system.
How the Ownership of Spooled Files Is Determined
If the user ID on the sending system exists on a destination AS/400 system, the
spooled file is created under that user profile. However, if the user profile does not
exist on the destination system, then the spooled file is created under the
QTMPLPD user profile.
When sending from a non-AS/400 system to an AS/400 system, the file is always
created using the QPTMPLPD printer file. This is also true when sending from an
AS/400 to an AS/400 with the TRANSFORM(*YES) parameter.In these cases,
spooled files received by the LPD server are placed under special jobs.
For example, if user ID JOHN exists, the file is placed under job
999999/JOHN/QPRTJOB. If user ID JOHN does not exist, the file is placed under
999999/QTMPLPD/QPRTJOB. For more information on QPRTJOB, see the

How an LPD Server Selects an Output Queue for a File
Figure 228on page 371 shows how the AS/400 LPD server selects on which output
queue a file is placed.
