ASSIGN and PARAM Commands
PARAM PRINTNAME
The PARAM PRINTNAME command sets the process name of the print process that 
controls the interspooler thread. This configuration parameter applies individually to all 
interspooler threads. This command is equivalent to the SPOOLCOM command 
PRINT $process-name.
$process-name
is the process name (in local form) of the print process. If the name is already 
configured in the local spooler, the name is used if the print program it represents 
successfully matches the print program represented by the object file name (from 
the ASSIGN PRINTFILE command). The object file and process name must 
represent the same print program. If the object file name does not match and is 
inactive, RPSetup changes the object file to match. The default process name is 
$SPLX.
PARAM PRINTPARM
The PARAM PRINTPARM command sets a print-process parameter that is passed by 
the supervisor to the print process in the Startup message. Its meaning is defined by a 
user-written print process.  The Tandem print process, FASTP, does not use this 
parameter. This command is equivalent to the SPOOLCOM command PRINT PARM.
parameter
is a number that can be represented in 16 bits. The range for parameter is 
–32768 through +32767. The default value is 0. 
PARAM PRIORITY
The PARAM PRIORITY command sets the priority of the print process that controls the 
interspooler threads. This command is equivalent to the SPOOLCOM command 
PRINT PRI.
execution-priority
is the execution priority. The value can be in the range 1 through 199. The default 
value is the priority of the local spooler supervisor minus 10.
