DEFINING THE PRINTER TO THE HOST: TCP/IP ATTACHMENT

4. Configure the printer in PSF/MVS

Follow these steps to configure the IPS printer in PSF:

1.Locate the PSF startup procedure in the JES3 or JES2 startup JCL procedure. This is normally kept in SYS1.PROCLIB, although your system may use a different library.

The libraries specified by the //PROC00 DD statement normally contains startup procedures for PSF subsystems. The name of the procedure is specified in the initialization dataset (FSS statement PROC parameter in JES2; the FSSDEF statement PNAME parameter in JES3. See the appropriate section in this appendix for clarification).

2.Add a PRINTDEV statement to define the IPS printer in PSF. (See the example below for the general format or the PSF Systems Programming Reference for more information.

The table below contains descriptions of the PSF parameters which need to be set for the IPS printer.
