Operand Explanations

The DISPLAY command for virtual printers has the following operands:

ALL

Lists all virtual printers. You can retrieve detailed information on a specific virtual printer by tabbing the cursor to the first field on the row with the desired virtual printer and entering an S.

ACT

Lists only the virtual printers that are active.

INACT

Lists only the virtual printers that are inactive.

UNAVAIL

Lists only the virtual printers that have been marked as unavailable.

SUMM

Displays only summary information about the number of virtual printers and a breakdown of their status. This information also appears when you use the ALL, ACT, INACT, or UNAVAIL operands.

vptrID

Displays more detailed information on a particular virtual printer (including information on the sessions for this virtual printer).

Note: This option can also be specified with hyphens (-) as masking characters. Each hyphen matches any character (including blanks). The mask must have at least as many characters as a normal ID for the entry to be selected.

For example if your virtual printer IDs have seven characters such as DXAL059, and you want to check all virtual printers with XAL in the second through fourth positions, enter:

D VP=-XAL---

The resulting display is the same as that displayed by the ALL operand, except that only the entries matching the mask will be listed.

SYSID=tpxappl

Identifies a specific instance of CA TPX on which the command is to be executed. For details, see the Operand Explanations for the ACTIVATE command.
