RE: Default to printer drawer 3 in WSCST requires rocket science

You may have to play with the values a bit so don't dismiss it as a
potential solution.  When you do a CHGSPLFA and specify a drawer does it
indeed pull from the correct drawer?  If it doesn't pull from the selected
drawer there may be other factors at work.  You might also save some time
by calling IBM and getting their help.

Interesting.  I tried this, but no change.

Thanks for suggesting, Dave.
