Isn't it the other way 'round?

The operator "tells" the printer to print output matching
ceratin criteria, such as FORMS ($tprtxyz FORMS=FORM1). This
effectively tells JES to only reply to PSF's "is-there 
anything-I-can-print"-inquiries with output that has
FORMS=FORM1. When there is no more output with FORMS=FORM1,
the printer will go idle until either the next output
arrives or the operator changes the setup ($tprtxyz FORMS=).
