AS/400 / iSeries Settings for Version 3.7, - 7.x

To configure IPDS printing on OS/400 from version 3.7 to V7 it is necessary to
create a Printer Device Description. It is also highly recommended to create a PSF
configuration as this includes additional printer settings and e.g. media size
information used with matrix printers. These are created using the following
commands:
 CRTPSFCFG
 CRTDEVPRT
8.7.1

Creating the PSF configuration

On the iSeries command line, enter a command in the form:
CRTPSFCFG PSFCFG(AFP/NETWRKPRT) IPDSPASTHR(*YES) RLSTMR(*SEC15)
TEXT('<Optional Text description> ')
Where:
AFP is the name an existing library in which the PSF configuration is to be located
and NETWRKPRT is the name given to the PSF configuration object. Any existing
library and a name of choice for the object can be substituted here but the same
values must be used in the creation of the Printer Device Description in the next
step.
<Optional Text description> is an optional text description for the PSF
configuration object.
A completed PSF Configuration looks like this:
