Attaching Printer to zSeries Systems
It is necessary to define a printer in the zSeries environment to VTAM*, JES2,
POWER, PSF, VPS, JES328X Print Facility, NCP, VM, VSE, MVS, and/or other
software depending upon your operating environment and printing requirements.
If you are attaching a printer with the IPDS feature installed, review the InfoPrint
6500 IPDS Programmer's Reference Manual for information on configuring IPDS.
Types of Installation covered for MVS/JES2
Below is a list of configurations covered in this section:
v LU1-SCS-Local SNA 3174 Control Unit
v LU1-SCS-Remote SNA 3174 Control Unit
v LU3-DSE-Local SNA 3174 Control Unit
v LU3-DSE Remote SNA 3174 Control Unit
v LU0-DSC-Local Non-SNA 3174 Control Unit
6500-LU1-SCS-Local SNA 3174 Control Unit
LU1-SCS mode is utilized when neither PSF support nor IPDS is required to
accomplish the print function desired. An existing local 3174 SNA-connected
control unit is assumed. The steps required to install a local LU1-SCS printer for
host definitions are as follows:
1. Define to VTAM
2. Define to JES2 (Not required but recommended. See the following details.
3. Define to CICS
4. Select the options on the printer that are appropriate for the environment.
Step 1 - VTAM Definition
The following should be added to the Local Major Node VTAM definition. The
printer will be attached as an LU1-IPDS capable printer.
