SPECIFYING INPUT PARAMETERS
XEROX DOCUPRINT 180 LPS PDL REFERENCE 4-41
EOV
This parameter specifies the action the system takes when it
encounters an end-of-volume (EOV) on the input data tape.
Syntax VOLUME EOV = option(s)
Options Table 4-45 lists the parameter option(s) and definition(s).
HOST
This parameter specifies the computer or host operating system
generated the input data file.
Syntax VOLUME HOST = option(s)
Options Table 4-46 lists the parameter option(s) and definition(s).

Option(s) Definition(s)
([PAUSE
|
NOPAUSE],
[EOF
|
NOEOF])
This option has the following components:
•
PAUSE
Displays a message when EOV is encountered.
A CONTINUE response by the operator causes
the tape to rewind and the normal volume
change sequence to proceed.
•
NOPAUSE
Issues a rewind instruction as soon as the EOV
label is processed.
•
EOF
End-of-file. Specifies that the end-of-volume
label is treated as an end-of-file label. When
this occurs, the first part of the page spanning
the volumes is output as the last page of the job.
The second part of the spanned page is printed
as the first page when the next volume is
started, with possible page format irregularities.
To use the EOF parameter effectively, special
user-formatting of the multireel tapes is required
to avoid these page format problems.
•
NOEOF
Specifies normal end-of-volume processing.
The default is (NOPAUSE,NOEOF).
