Virtual Printer Interface

The Virtual Printer interface can be used to collect data sent by a TP-monitor (like CICS or IMS) to a VTAM-attached printer, and store the collected data as a CA Spool file.

CA Spool can take over the responsibility for the physical printing from other TP-monitors without changing the application programs, or modifying the TP‑monitor.
