RE: Trimming off pages to print

Here's a RTVCFGSRC for my *LAN laser printer's device description.

Please note, however, that this doesn't work on V3R2.  I think it requires
V4R2 or V4R3, but not sure exactly:

   CRTDEVPRT  DEVD(PQ) DEVCLS(*LAN) TYPE(3812) MODEL(1) LANATTACH(*IP) +
              PORT(9100) ATTACH(*DIRECT) ONLINE(*YES) FONT(011 +
              *NONE) FORMFEED(*AUTOCUT) SEPDRAWER(*FILE) +
              PRTERRMSG(*INQ) MSGQ(*LIBL/A1) ACTTMR(170) +
              INACTTMR(*SEC15) LINESPEED(19200) WORDLEN(8) +
              PARITY(*NONE) STOPBITS(1) TRANSFORM(*YES) +
              MFRTYPMDL(*HP5SI) PPRSRC1(*LETTER) PPRSRC2(*LETTER) +
              ENVELOPE(*NUMBER10) ASCII899(*NO) IMGCFG(*NONE) +
              CHRID(*SYSVAL) RMTLOCNAME('192.168.5.2') +
              SYSDRVPGM(*HPPJLDRV) TEXT('Accounting Dept Printer')
