attached to the print server. This name must be identical to the name entered

for the device name in the DEVD field in the CRTDEVPRT command.

4. In the IPDS Pass Through (IPDSPASTHR) field, enter *YES. This causes

PSF/400 to transform SCS into IPDS before printing.5. In the TCP/IP

Support (TCPIP) field, enter *YES.

value at least equal to the timeout value on the printer. This is the time

PSF/400 will maintain a session with the print server while there are no

spooled files with a status of RDY.
