Re: Can I automate thye sending of a spool file to a PC printer?

" that IBM site in Italy" is now WWW.EASY400.NET . And yes, they have a lot
of free utilities for converting spool files to TXT, PDF, HTML and sending
the output to an IFS directory.

P.S. Not trying to belittle any commercial option. I'm sure those must be a
lot more flexible and with more options.

I know we have products that can do that. One called Batch Report Server
can put converted spooled files to any IFS directory - which could be a
QNTC or NFS share. The usual - http://www.rjssoftware.com or call us at
888.RJS.SOFT

And I think there's a free offereing from that IBM site in Italy - might
be something in the archives. I forget at the moment.

Well... the answer is "no." I sure can't.

The real question is "can a spool file be sent to a PC folder?"

Right now we open Ops Navigator and drag & drop the output that way,
but I would very much like to automate the step.
