5 PSF/MVS AFP Printing Using TCP/IP
This chapter provides information on how to create MVS definitions for printing from PSF/MVS via TCP/IP. The following topics are addressed:
JES printer statements
PSF Startup procedure
Once these parameters have been configured, and the basic TCP/IP installation of the PrintServer (equipped with an IPDS DIMM) has been completed, direct AFP / IPDS from PSF / MVS will be possible.
Requirements:
•PSF/MVS version 2 Release 2.0 with APAR OW15599.
•MVS Scheduler APAR OW12236 which supports the PRINTDEV IPADDR and PORTNO keywords.
•IBM TCP/IP Version 3 Release 1, or higher, installed and configured on MVS.
MTU size:
•The Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) of the IP packet for the MVS system is recommended to be set up to 2000.
Note: The MTU size should not exceed the maximum size sent through the control unit. Failure may lead to transmission problems.
