SEParator No
tells CP whether to insert a separator page between output files. YES is the
default.
MARK Yes
MARK No
specifies whether a 3800 printer will mark separator trailer pages with separator
bars. When ’Mark Yes’ is in effect, 3 separator trailer pages are printed for each
file. ’Mark No’ causes only one trailer page to be printed, thus saving paper.
However, using ’Mark No’ could also make it more difficult to separate 3800
output, as there are no markings between files. The default is YES.
DEST dest
is the destination that an output device can service. The variable dest is a 1- to
8-character alphanumeric string assigned to the printer. You may specify up to
four destination values.
LIMit NONE
LIMit nnnnnnnnn
is the maximum number of records of a file to be printed. The default is NONE.
WCGM 2
WCGM 4
tells CP that the 3800 has either the 2-writable-character generation module
feature or the 4-writable-character generation module feature.
Note: You can only specify this option for a IBM 3800 Model 1.
For a IBM 3800 Model 1, the default is WCGM 2. For IBM 3800 Models 3, 6,
and 8, the default is WCGM 4.
Example 1:
To specify a IBM 3800 Model 3 printer at device number 500 to be dedicated to a
virtual machine, enter the following:
set rdevice 500 type 3800 model 3
Example 2:
HCP002E Invalid operand - operand
To specify three IBM 3800 Model 8 printers at device numbers 501, 502, and 503 to
be dedicated to virtual machines, enter the following:
set rdevice 501-503 type 3800 model 8
After CP issues a message for each device address affected by a SET RDEVICE
command, CP displays the following summary response:
xxx RDEV(s) specified; yyy RDEV(s) changed; zzz RDEV(s) created
HCP003E Invalid option - command contains
extra option(s) starting with option
SET RDEVICE 3800 Printers
HCP013E Conflicting option - option
HCP6000E The range of device numbers cannot
exceed 256.
