Thanks to all for the replies. I was unaware of the "No Charge" part of RSCS.

We use JQP from MacKinney Software. In the worst case, you can use the free IBM "Network Print Facility". This last is a bear to set up and control! If you want to print a dataset, look at the "lpr" command in z/OS: http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/BOOKS/f1a1b990/9.0 Looks like z/VM has an "lpr" command as well. http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/BOOKS/hcsk7b30/10.0 -- John McKown Systems Engineer IV IT Administrative Services Group HealthMarkets(r) 9151 Boulevard 26 * N.
