SET Command
DEVTYPE { CRT | PRINTER }
specifies the type of device being configured, CRT or printer. CRT is the default
value if DEVTYPE is not specified.
Messages: 1004, 1008, and 1015.
ENDFF { ON | OFF }
specifies whether a form feed is issued at the end of a printer session file. For
terminal sessions, ENDFF specifies whether a form feed is issued after a screen
print operation. The default value for ENDFF is OFF.

EOFTEXT “text”
specifies a character string enclosed in quotation marks used to determine the end of
a print file from the IBM host. You can specify EOFTEXT for each configured
printer. text is case-sensitive, can contain any printable ASCII characters, and can
be up to 10 characters in length. When EOFTEXT is specified, the EM3270
emulator compares text with each incoming print record from the IBM host. If
fewer than 10 characters are specified, only that number is compared to each print
record. If a match is found, the record is deleted and the output spooler file is closed
and reopened. If EOFTEXT is not specified or text is null (that is, “ ”), the emulator
does not examine the print data records for an end-of-file indicator for this printer.
The EOFTEXT specification has meaning when DEVTYPE is set to PRINTER.
You can use EOFTEXT separately or with the TIMEOUT specification.

HIDDEN { ON | OFF }
specifies whether nondisplay fields of Tandem application screens will be
suppressed during screen print operations. If HIDDEN is ON, such fields will not
print. The default is OFF. This parameter has no affect on screen print operations
involving the HOST application screen.

HOST[n] file-name
specifies a file name that a terminal can use to access an IBM or Fujitsu host
application program. One file name is required; there is no default value. The
required keyword HOST must precede file-name. You can specify up to five
alternate file names to access five additional IBM or Fujitsu host application
programs. To identify an additional file name to be used to access a host application
program, specify a number from 1 through 5, inclusive, as the value of n, followed
by file-name. All file names that you specify are displayed when you use the HOST
(shifted ROLL UP) key to switch to a different host. Pressing the displayed function
key for the associated program selects that program. IBMKANJI and IBMMIXED
should be specified to access an IBM host application that is using the Kanji
character set. JEFKANJI should be specified to access a Fujitsu host application
that is using the Kanji character set.
