RE: Copier printing

["David A Parnin" <daparnin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Better late than never!  I think that I used QSYS/RTVWSCST DEVTYPE
(*TRANSFORM).  If you do that and prompt you will get more options.  You
can prompt on the "Manufacturer type and model" and fill in the blanks on
where you want the source to go.

I never figured it out completely.  Another project got bumped up in
priority and I had to put this on the back burner for now although if you
have any suggestions I could probably squeeze out some time to try them.
Thanks.

As you can see, this is from an older discussion.  I stashed the answer
away, just in case someday I'd need it.  Well, today's the day.  The
problem
is, I can't seem to figure out just how to retrieve the source for a *WSCST
object.  When I prompt the Retrieve WSCST source (RTVWSCST) command, I get
a
list of device types, not a list of *WSCST objects.  So how do I get the
source of the QWPHP5SI work station customization object so that I can
tweak
the paper drawer?
