Help for a specific printer is available by entering ? in the action field of the printer in question; this displays all actions valid for that particular printer.
If the Info code is non-zero, the last VTAM sense code (or TCP/IP status code) and an optional status message are shown to help explain the current state of the printer, or why the printer has failed. The format of the TCP/IP message is as follows:
Last PJL Status Code = 10003 / 02 WARMING UP
The following TCP/IP status codes and messages may be shown:
