Creating a Device Description or a Remote Print Queue

Note: The commands supplied are versions of the standard IBM commands but only offer the variables that
require user input.
1. Type one of the following commands and press the ENTER key:
•
CRTXDEVPRT:
unexpected results)
•
CRTXRMTQ: creates a remote print queue (for printing to lpr port 515)
Note: The commands mentioned in step one above produce the same results as CRTDEVPRT or CRTOUTQ
with the exception that lines that use default options are removed so only lines that require input are
displayed. The following image displays how the command looks using sample data.
2. Enter the required values based on the command you use.
a. If you use CRTXDEVPRT, a screen like the following one appears:
Enter the information below:
Name of printer device: User-defined name for the print queue.
Remote Location: IP address or host name of Xerox device. If you use an IP address, surround it with
single quotes. For example: '111.111.1.100'
WorkStation Custom Object: The WSCST that was created when the user-defined WSCO was compiled.
Press F4 to see the list.
Library Name: The name of the library where the WSCST resides. Use the name that matches the
version of the library that was downloaded. E.g. XTOOLS0924
Message Queue: Location for saving error messages. *SYSOPR is the default but can be changed.
Library Name: *LIBL is the default.
User Space Name: XRXUSPC. This is used by the XSNMPDRV for Prepend and Postpend options
and is ignored by other driver programs.
Library Name: Same as the Library Name you specified for the WorkStation Custom Object above.
Paper Size Drawer 1, 2: The default is *LETTER, which means an 8.5" x 11" paper size command will
be sent to the printer. The printer will display a message to load the requested media size into the
specified tray (drawer) if that media size is not currently loaded. (NOTE: For this to work with AFPDS
spools, the page size of the spool must match the Paper Size Drawer value – otherwise, the spool's
page size will override the Paper Size Drawer value.) If the tray will be used to print several different
sizes of paper, then the W SCO can be modified to not send a media size and only send a specific tray
request.
