Installation and Configuration
Step 1 - VTAM Definition
The following should be added to the Local Major Node VTAM definition. The
printer will be attached as an LU1-IPDS capable printer.
LOC3174 VBUILD TYPE=LOCAL
LOCPU74 PU CUADDR=nnn,MAXBFRU=2
LOC6400 LU LOCADDR=n,MODETAB=MYMODETB,DLOGMODE=6400IPDL,ISTATUS=ACTIVE
The following entry should be placed in the VTAM MODE TABLE specified above
or another of your choice.
6400IPDL MODEENT LOGMODE=6400IPDL,
FMPROF=X'03',TSPROF=X'03',PRIPROT=X'B1',
SECPROT=X'90',COMPROT=X'7080',RUSIZES=X'87C6',
PSERVIC=X'01000001E100000000000000'
PSNDPAC=X'01',SRCVPAC=X'01',SSNDPAC=X'00'
Step 2 - JES2 Definition (SYS1.PARMLIB)
RMT1 LUTYPE1,BUFSIZE=3840,LINE=1,NUMRD=0,NUMPR=1,NOCOMP,NOCMPCT,
SETUPHDR,CONSOLE
R1.PR1 CLASS=A,NOSEP,PRWIDTH=132,NOFCBLOD,WS=(W,R,Q,PMD,LIM,F,T/C,P),
CKTPAGE=30
DESTID NAME=LOC6400,DEST=R1
Refer to the PSF/MVS Systems Programming Guide, S544-3672 for further details.
Step 3 - Define to CICS or another application program
An application program must provide the IPDS datastream to control the printer.
GDDM, VPS, and other applications support IPDS as well as numerous
application programs, both customer written and vendor supplied. Refer to the
vendor documentation for defining an IPDS printer to that program. If specific
reference is not made to the 6400 you may use an IBM 4234 definition.
Step 4 - Printer Settings
It is recommended that the following fastest default printer settings be used:
•
Printer Control => Interface Selection => Coax
•
Coax Interface => CT0 Format Control => Standard
•
Emulation Configuration => IPDS
•
Emulation Configuration => IPDS => Override Hosts => *Disable
•
Emulation Configuration => IPDS => Check Graphic Quality, Bar Code
Quality, and Graphics Quality settings for desired quality.
Review “Configuring IPDS from the Printer Operator Panel” on page 17 and the
6400 Setup Guide, S246-0116 for information on setting printer configuration
values.
