Re: Printer file not supported in EXTNAME?

Perhaps you have already figured this out, but does the asterisk on the EXTNAME line make no difference here?
It seems to me to be commented out.

Can't seem to compile this program with a printer file in the EXTNAME in
the data structure

R JEFFR
FIELD1 5A 1
FIELD2 5A 10


FJEFFPRT O E PRINTER PREFIX('JEFFOUT.')
D* jeffout E DS EXTNAME(JEFFPRT) QUALIFIED
D JEFFOUT DS QUALIFIED
D FIELD1 5A
D FIELD2 5A
/FREE
jeffout.field1='bubba';
jeffout.field2='billy';
write jeffr;
*inlr=*on;
return;
/end-free

When I try, I get
