RE: "S/36 Printer ID" changed?

Oh wow.  Those definitely should be changed to outq.  It's fairly simple. 
CLP overrides take care of that. 
 
In your example both of the following lines would exist:
 
// PRINTER NAME-x,PRIORITY-0,LINES-42,FORMSNO-y
OVRPRTF FILE(X) OUTQ(P5)

This will simply change the output to outq P5.  by removing the offending
device-p5 and a new line assigning the printer file X to outq P5. 
We still have production code like this for about 10 OCL driven programs
that nobody wants to change.

It specifies:
// PRINTER NAME-x,DEVICE-P5,PRIORITY-0,LINES-42,FORMSNO-y

I have no idea what it "should" say.  I'm not sure I was even born yet 
when S/36 was released.

Justin,

Now I'm curious. What kind of error are you getting?  Is this because of 
some OCL hard
coded printer file(s)?  (// printer name-output,device-P5)   Something 
like that?
Because if that's the case shouldn't those be coded to point to outq's not 
devices?
