Attaching Printer to zSeries Systems
Attaching Printer to zSeries Systems
It is necessary to define a printer in the zSeries environment to VTAM*, JES2,
POWER, PSF, VPS, JES328X Print Facility, NCP, z/VM, z/OS, VSE/ESA
and/or other software depending upon your operating environment and
printing requirements.
If you are attaching a printer with the IPDS feature installed, review the 6400
IPDS Programmer’s Reference Manual for information on configuring IPDS.
Types of Installation covered for MVS/JES2
Below is a list of configurations covered in this appendix:
•
LU1-SCS-Local SNA 3174 Control Unit
•
LU1-SCS-Remote SNA 3174 Control Unit
•
LU3-DSE-Local SNA 3174 Control Unit
•
LU3-DSE Remote SNA 3174 Control Unit
•
LU0-DSC-Local Non-SNA 3174 Control Unit
6400-LU1-SCS-Local SNA 3174 Control Unit
LU1-SCS mode is utilized when neither PSF support nor IPDS is required to
accomplish the print function desired. An existing local 3174 SNA-connected
control unit is assumed. The steps required to install a local LU1-SCS printer
for host definitions are as follows:
1. Define to VTAM by adding logmode entry to VTAM Logmode Table
2. Define to JES2 (Not required but recommended. See the following
details.
3. Define to CICS* or another Application Program such as VPS or
JES328X products.
4. Select the options on the printer that are appropriate for the environment.
Step 1 - VTAM Definition
The following should be added to the Local Major Node VTAM definition. The
printer will be attached as an LU1-IPDS capable printer.
