The PRINT and TYPE statements work differently from other DDR control
statements in that they operate on only one data extent at a time. If the input is
from a tape created by the dump function, it must be positioned at the header
record for each step. The PRINT and TYPE statements have an implied output of
either the console (TYPE) or system printer (PRINT). Therefore, PRINT and TYPE
statements need not be delimited by an INPUT or OUTPUT statement.
I/O Definition Control Statements
The I/O definition statements describe the tape, DASD, and printer devices used
while the DASD Dump Restore utility is running.
