Installation and Configuration Considerations for
FASTPTCP
Installation and Configuration Tasks for
FASTPTCP
To install and configure a FASTPTCP print process, perform the following tasks:
1. Install the FASTPTCP object code ($SYSTEM.SYSTEM.FASTPTCP) This step is
described in
2. Add the following configuration information to the Spooler subsystem either
interactively or in a command file:
a. Create one or more FASTPTCP print processes by using the Spoolcom PRINT
command.
General creation of a print process is described in step
Configuration Tasks
D48.02 RVUs of FASTPTCP, you can also include a PARM attribute in the
PRINT command to specify additional print process configuration options for
FASTPTCP. The specification of PRINT PARM attributes for FASTPTCP is
described in
b. Associate each device name (that is, the device name designated for a TCP/IP
printer) with the appropriate FASTPTCP print process and specify the
appropriate Spooler device attributes for each device by using the Spoolcom
DEV command.
In theory, a FASTPTCP print process supports a maximum of 32 printers;
however, practical configurations usually have 10 to 16 printer devices per
process.
General use of the DEV command is described in step
Configuration Tasks
and device attributes for TCP/IP printers are discussed in
page 3-11.
c. Designate one or more Spooler job locations for each printer and associate
each printer with the appropriate device name by using the Spoolcom LOC
command. Designation of a Spooler job location is described in step
Spooler Configuration Tasks
3. Create one or more FASTCNFG files to contain network protocol parameters and
transport parameters for the devices. The creation of a FASTCNFG file is
discussed in general terms in
considerations for FASTPTCP, including the use of the DEFAULT, HOSTS, and
POLLTYPE keywords, and FASTCNFG DEVICE configuration attributes for
TCP/IP printers are discussed in
