Re: Printer file

A number of things about your question.

The first thing that strikes me is your parameter PAGESIZE(88 132 *ROWCOL).
If you want to print 240 characters wide, you will need to use PAGESIZE(88
240 *ROWCOL).

My second concern is your use of CPI(18).  Not all printers would be able
to handle this CPI.

My third concern is that 240/18 = 13.33 inches width.  Again, not all
printers can handle this (for example A4 is only about 8 inches wide).

My last concern is your parameter PAGRTT180).  This will make the report
print upside down.  Is this really what you want?  It is more usual to use
*COR (which reduces a normal 13.2x11 report down to 8.5x11) or *AUTO (which
will try to make your output fit the page.  You can even use 90 or 270
(which makes it print sideways), but 180 is an unusual requirement
