Panel Description

NETWORK PRINTER-ID

Enter a 1- to 4-character printer ID. CA Dataquery displays the value entered in the System Option Table, if one has not been entered for the user.

PRINT QUERY TEXT

Y (yes), the default, if the text of the query that produced the report is to be printed when the report is printed on a network printer.

N (no) does not print the query text.

PRINT STATISTICS

Y (yes), the default, if the statistics of the query that produced the report are to be printed when the report is printed on a network printer.

N (no) does not print the query statistics.

PRINT BANNER PAGE

Y (yes), the default, if the print jobs are to be preceeded with a banner page containing user name, date, and time, to aid in distributing the reports.

N (no) suppresses the printing of the banner page.

PRINT USING WINDOWS

Y (yes) if the report extends beyond 80 columns and you do not want the report lines to wrap.

N (no) the default, states that you want the print to wrap or continue on the next line.

PRINT PAGES TOGETHER

Use this field when printing a report composed of two or more adjacent (side-by-side) pages. If the first page (left-hand page) is labeled A and the second page (right-hand page) is labeled B and the report is three pages in length, specifying:

Y (yes), the default, would result in these pages being printed in the order of 1A, 1B, 2A, 2B, 3A, 3B.

N (no) results in a printing order of 1A, 2A, 3A, 1B, 2B, 3B.

This applies to both network and system printers.

PRINT NUMBER OF COLUMNS

Indicate a 1- to 3-character numeric value. Specify the width of the hardcopy on the network printer by stating the number of columns to be printed.

PRINT NUMBER OF ROWS

This is a 3-character numeric field. Specify the number of rows to be printed on one page of hardcopy on the network printer.

When you have completed your input to either User Profile panel (DQKL0 or DQKM0), or both, press <PF4> UPDATE to save changes. The new print options are in effect at the next sign-on with this ID.
