Is is possible to print an IFS file to AS400 network printer ?
You can spool the file and then assign it to whatever outq/printer you
want.
If yes, how can this be done? How can the IFS file be converted to
spool file or assigned to the printer queue ?
A number of ways:
1) OVRDBF STDOUT QSYSPRT
QSH CMD('cat the-stream-file-path')
DLTOVR STDOUT
2) FTP the file to QSYSPRT
put the-stream-file-path /qsys.lib/qsysprt.file
3) Redirect the file to a "print" utility within QSH
cat the-stream-file-path | Rfile -w /qys.lib/qsysprt.file
If the file contains more than just plain text then the example at the
foot of the Rfile documentation may give you a means to deal with that.
4) DSPF the-stream-file-path
Type PRINT in the Control field and press Enter
5) Copy the stream file to a database file/source member and use
normal OS/400 print facilities.
