Re: Printer issue: refusing to print all 198 columns

Thank you Dave!

I'm not sure I tried that yet. I'll try that next.

I have a user trying to print a report with 198 columns, all of them
used.
The spool file that outputs has /all/ the print columns and all the data
columns.

It's written to an externally described printer file defined as having
the 198 print positions in the detail record.

The file is defined with CPI = 18, Pagesize( 66 198 *ROWCOL).

There is a CLLE with a couple of OVRPRTF parameters that are not
available with the externally described printer file object. I have
included PRTRTT( *AUTO ) and that got more columns on the page but it's
still cutting off about 50 print positions.

I found that I had to specify PAGRTT(90) and CPI(20) to get my
198-column report to print entirely on the page.


Sincerely,

Dave Clark
