AS/400 and iSeries Twinax Printing Using the Adapter for SCS
Step 4
Modify the Auto-created Twinax Device Description or Use CRTDEVPRT to Create
a Printer Device Description
When you let the host auto-create your IPDS device, you will need to alter the following device description
parameters to enable full IPDS printing:
An example of a device description for Twinax printing is shown below.
The
italicized lines
show the
parame-
ters which must be changed for sending IPDS jobs
.
Use
CRTDEVPRT
to create the device description if you
did not use auto-config on the AS/400.
Note:
Examples showing parameters displayed on an AS/400 may be different than the parameters
displayed on your system.
Examples are shown with V5R2 parameters.
