RE: Printing Issue: Would like to print from Windows

Eric,
        On the Display Spooled File screen, there is a Page/Line counter in
the upper right hand corner.  The line portion of this value is the vertical
line position of the printed text.  As you scroll down line by line (+1 in
the Control line), you may see that the Line value skips numbers.  This
indicates that you just skipped one or more blank lines.  This is a way to
determine the vertical output without printing.

Subject: Printing Issue: Would like to print from Windows


Hello everyone,

Would it be possible for me to print from my PC (windows 98) when I am
working on the mainframe to print out reports, etc. I am using Host-on-Deman
4 for access to the mainframe (as/400 v4r4). Even if I was in the computer
lab, there is no printer attached to the mainframe system. The reason why I
am asking this is I have been dealing with vertical printer spacing issues.

After the QPRINT file has been placed into your output queue, you view the
contents of this file, there are no vertical spacings. This is what I would
like to be able to somewhat resolve.

This inquiry is for my cobol and rpg iv classes. What I am dealing with now
is learning how to arrange headings, detail lines; vertical spacing issues.

Currently, I am using the ADVANCING (before & after) option for spacing
lines. Everything that I have attempted to make vertical lines show
correctly, doesnt make a difference in the output.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Eric
