Re: Remote Outq Question

[Kirk Goins <kirkgoins@xxxxxxxxx>]

I'm going to assume that what is happening is this... When a print file has
a defined page width of over 80 characters, the system is rotating the page
to landscape and setting font size to something close to 17CPI. On a report
that is 132 chars wide, this will fill about 2/3 of the page. IF that is not
what is happening read no further....

A fix you  can do if you are on a pretty recent OS ( heck maybe any V5 or
higher ) is to create a Workstation Customzation object ( WSCST ) and make a
minor edit.

Do a RTVWSCST DEVTYPE(*TRANSFORM) MFRTYPMDL(*HP4000) SRCMBR(HP4000)
SRCFILE(QGPL/QTXTSRC)

Now open the file created in you r favorite editor and delete these lines (
you line# may differ ) and save the file.
0001.07     :CPICOR
0001.08       CPI=10
0001.09       ASCIIFNT=  255
0001.10       FNTWTH=   84
0001.11       FNTATR=    1
0001.12       DATA =''X.
0001.13     :CPICOR
0001.14       CPI=12
0001.15       ASCIIFNT=  255
0001.16       FNTWTH=   84
0001.17       FNTATR=    1
0001.18       DATA =''X.
Now use the cmd CRTWSCST WSCST(QGPL/HP4000) SRCFILE(QGPL/QTXTSRC)
Now create a device desc like this using your correct IP address and name

CRTDEVPRT DEVD(TEST) DEVCLS(*LAN) TYPE(3812) MODEL(1)  LANATTACH(*IP)
PORT(9100) FONT(11) PRTERRMSG(*INFO) TRANSFORM(*YES)
MFRTYPMDL(*HP4000) RMTLOCNAME('10.10.10.10')
SYSDRVPGM(*HPPJLDRV) WSCST(QGPL/HP4000)

Vary it on, start the writer and test again. This WSCST without the CPICOR
statements will use
13.2CPI and thus cause the page to be filled.
