OVERVIEW

Keywords
All commands begin with a keyword. This word sends a specific
instruction to the system (for example, SAMPLE).
You can enter keywords in any of the following ways:
• Full spelling (for example, SAMPLE)
• Abbreviation (for example, SAM)
• Three or more characters, up to the full command (for
example, REALLOC for REALLOCATE).
A few commands begin with more than one keyword (for
example, PQA STA). Exceptions to this are I, O, A (for INPUT,
OUTPUT, and ALL) and Q for QUEUE.
Other exceptions to keywords are words for CARTRIDGE and
TAPE. CAR and TAP are reserved and cannot be used as file
names.
Parameters
Most parameters are optional. You use them to refine
commands. For example, the "I" in STOP I specifies input
processing. Likewise, the "O" in STOP O specifies output
processing.
If you use more than one parameter, follow these guidelines:
• Separate each parameter with a comma (for example, PQA
CONTINUE,2,S).
• Do not include spaces around the commas.
• Enter parameters in the order specified for that command.
If you want to omit a parameter, you must enter a comma in its
place (for example, PQA CONTINUE,,S). The default value set
for the omitted parameter is then used.
For more information about commands, refer to the Xerox
4050/4090/4450/4650 LPS Command Reference.
