Re: HELP!!! Problems w/ host print transform lan-attached printers after V5R2 upgrade

I assume you put the most recent cume on after the upgrade to v5r2 (because
a new release
without cume is most dangerous).
Check the IBM Software Knowledge Base for tcp printing ptf's
Search "v5rxmx ptf" there is a doc for tcp printing, another for hpt,
another for afp (i wish we could get a "printing group ptf").

print the first 74 characters of each page of a 132 position report (the

printed the first 97 positions of another 132 chracter report (output from a
DSPFD cmd).
