1. Complete the following fields and press Enter.

   Printer

   Lets you define the destination to which the printed output is sent. You can specify a printer name, node.userid, or leave the field blank to spool the printed output to your TSO userid.

   Dsname

   Lets you define the name of a data set to which the printed output is written. If this field is non-blank, it overrides the Printer field. When entering a data set name, it must be fully qualified and enclosed in single quotation marks. Otherwise, your ZPREFIX value is used as the leading qualifier.

   Member

   Lets you define the member name if you are printing the report to a partitioned data set.

   Disposition

   Lets you specify the disposition of the data set to which the output should be printed. This field is relevant only if printing to a data set. If the value is NEW or MOD, a second window pops up to request allocation parameters.

   Values: SHR, OLD, NEW, and MOD

   Note: For a description of the fields on the window, see the PRINT command.

   Copies

   Lets you define the number of copies to be printed.

   Class

   Lets you define the sysout class to use to allocate the print data set.

   PageDef

   Lets you define the name of the library member that PSF uses to define the page layout for printing on a 3800 Printing Subsystem Model 3.

   FormDef

   Lets you define the name of the library member that PSF uses to define the form layout for printing on a 3800 Printing Subsystem Model 3.

   Chars

   Lets you define the name of the character arrangement tables for printing on a 3800 Printing Subsystem Model 3.

   Format

   Lets you specify whether to print reports for viewing at your installation.

   Default: Y

   Values:

   N

   Does not print reports for viewing. Set this field to N only when instructed to do so by CA Technical Support for diagnostic purposes.

Usage Notes:

• When one or more fields are changed before pressing Enter, the fields are validated and redisplayed along with the message Press Enter to Print. To continue, press Enter again.
• Reports are printed using the formatting options defined in the repository. Use the O line command prior to printing to confirm these options.
