Re: Externally described printer files

You can use an  L line and tell the program that there are 68 lines and
also what line you want to be the overflow line.  You'll want to put an L
in column 39 of the F spec line for the PRINTER file, too.

Ok.  Here is a question from our programmer/analysts.  I haven't

programmed in RPG so I didn't have much input.  We are trying to get a

report to print to an HPLJ4 with 68 lines.  One of the programmers says

it is not possible unless you use an externally described printer file. 

Can this be done using Output specs, or is the limit 66 lines?
