Managing and printing jobs from the Tape Client

4.If you selected Range, enter in the Range text field the file numbers that you want to print, in the order that you want them to be printed.

Indicate a range by entering the first and last file number, separated by a hyphen (-). Numbers may be in ascending or descending order.

Separate numbers and ranges by commas.

Example: 1, 4–6, 2,10–8

NOTE: Files on tape are sent to DocuSP as LCDS jobs (not as

LCDS reports) with a Job ID, which will display as the Document

Name on the Job Manager window.

Specifying the JDL, JDE, and form to start a job

Before you start a job, you must specify the initial job descriptor library (JDL) and job descriptor entry (JDE) that will be used for the job and for all the reports within the job that you print at that time. The JDL and JDE define the appearance of the printed job. (Refer to “The Job Source Library” in theUsing LCDS Print Description Language manual for detailed information on JDEs and JDLs.)

You can also specify a form that will be used in all the jobs. This form prints on every page of the job.

NOTE: If a form is already specified in the job itself, you do not have to specify it here, unless you intend to override it using a DJDE. In that case, you would specify in the Initial Form field the form that will override the one that was specified in the job.

The system continues to use the resources that you specify for all the jobs and reports that you print, unless you change the specifications while the job is running.

The JDE, JDL, and form are part of the job Start command, which you enter by making selections on the Tape Client window.

NOTE: You can also specify the JDL, JDE, and form before the jobs are sent from the Tape Client, by specifying the properties of the queue to which the jobs will be sent for printing. (Click Help on the Queue Manager window for the procedures for setting up a queue.)
