CHAPTER 8: IBM IPDS Printing

6. In the Activation Release Timer (ACTRLSTMR) field, enter *NORDYF. This

will cause PSF/400 to print all spooled files with a status of RDY before

releasing the session (which does not terminate the writer).

7. In the Release Timer (RLSTMR) field, enter *SEC15. This is parameter

should be set to a 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.

8. In the Remote Location Name or Address (RMTLOCNAME) field, enter the

TCP/IP address of the printer attached to the print server.

You may also enter the host name if you used the optional CFGTCP

command to create a TCP/IP Host Table entry.

9. In the Port (PORT) field, enter 5001.

10. In the TCP/IP Activation Timer (ACTTMR) field, enter *NOMAX. This will

cause PSF/400 to wait indefinitely for a response to an activation request.

1. At the AS/400 command line, enter the command CRTPSFCFG.

2. Press F11 to display the keywords.

3. In the PSF Configuration (PSFCFG) field, enter the name of the print server.

This must be the exact name used in the USRDFNOBJ field in the

CRTDEVPRT command (see Step 14 on the next page).

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

PSF/400 to transform SCS into IPDS before printing.

5. In the Activation Release Timer (ACTRLSTMR) field, enter *NORDYF. This

will cause PSF/400 to print all spooled files with a status of RDY before

releasing the session (which does not terminate the writer).

6. In the Release Timer (RLSTMR) field, enter *SEC15. This is parameter

should be set to a 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.
