SET RDEVICE Impact Printers
TYpe IMPact_printer
tells CP you are defining one of the impact printers listed above.
NO_SPOOLing
tells CP not to use the unit record device for printing.
SENSed
tells CP to use the information returned from a sense ID request to determine
the characteristics of this printer. If omitted, the default is SENSED.
NOTSENSed
tells CP not to use the information returned from a sense ID request to
determine the characteristics of this printer.
AFP Yes
AFP No
specifies whether the printer is to process files with advanced function printer
(AFP) characteristics, extended attribute buffers (XABs), or X'5A' channel
command words (CCWs). The default is YES.
CHARS ucsname
For a printer with the UNIVERSAL_CHARSET feature, CHARS ucsname
specifies the 1- to 4-character suffix of the name of the default universal
character set (UCS) buffer image. ucsname must correspond to one of the UCS
images stored in the image library. For example, if you enter:
set rdevice 0003 type 3203 chars an
The image library must contain a member named 3203AN.
Note: If CP determines the printer is a 3262, the default for CHARS is P48.
The default for 3203 is PCAN. The default for 3211 is A11.
CLasses
specifies the output spooling classes the printer can print. (To change the
spooling classes without having to take the printer off line, use the CP START
command.)
A is the default class.
1352 z/VM: CP Commands and Utilities Reference
classes
are the output spooling classes the printer can print.
You can specify CLASSES in one of the following ways:
v If you omit the CLASSES operand for unit record devices, class A is the
default.
v Enter CLASSES c[c...] to list up to eight output spooling classes. The
spooling class, c, is one alphanumeric character. You can specify multiple
classes as CLASSES ABC and a single class as CLASSES A.
v Enter CLASSES * to have the printer process files regardless of class.
DEST dest
specifies the output destination values the printer can print. (To change the
spooling destination values without having to take the printer off line, use the
CP START command.)
You can specify DEST in one of the following ways:
v If you omit the DEST operand, DEST OFF is the default.
v You can specify as many as four destination values by entering four different
DEST operands, for example:
DEST PRINTER1 DEST PRINTER2 DEST PRINTER3 DEST PRINTER4
