1 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 Start-up procedure
Once these parameters have been configured, and the basic TCP/IP installation of
the PrintServer with IPDS has been completed, direct AFP / IPDS from PSF / MVS
will be possible.
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.
1.1 PSF/MVS direct attachment
Sample PSF/MVS JES2 initialisation statements
FSSDEF(FSS1)PROC=PSF4,HASPFSSM=HASPFSSM
PRT420 FSS=FSS1,MODE=FSS,PRMODE=(LINE,PAGE),
CLASS=A,UCS=0,SEP,NOSEPDS,CKPTPAGE=100,DRAIN,WS=(R,Q/FCB)
