Re: Printers to 2nd Level VM
Clumsy phrasing on my part (slapped wrist accepted) ... should have said, 'No longer supports real 1403'. Apologies for lack of precision.
Re: Printers to 2nd Level VM
Not to get all "Eats, Shoots & Leaves" here, but one must parse Jeff's sentence thusly: "z/VM now only _supports_ 3203 printers" That is, z/VM does nothing more than support 3203 printers. What I suspect he meant to write (and Mike assumed he meant) was: "z/VM now supports _only_ 3203 printers" which is patently untrue. Those naughty adverbs and adjectives can cause a lot of mischief when they don't stay in their proper places. -Chip- On 6/13/11 20:34 Mike Walter said: Tom, The post began with the lines: "As usual, the solution is simple and (with hindsight) obvious ... z/VM now only supports 3203 printers" I responded: Pray tell where is it documented that the only printer z/VM supports is a lonely 3203?

Re: Printers to 2nd Level VM
I'm pretty sure I got this to work with SPOOL 000E 4248 but I could not come up with any details for you. I seem to have misplaced my notes about where I put my notes It has been quite a while since I tried it, and it was not something I had to have, since there were two or three other solutions that worked fine too. I tried it just because I recalled being able to do it back in VM/SP days.

You have to define the printers to your second level VM system. My guess is that you also had to define them on the first level system. Look at the SYSTEM CONFIG on the first level to see if you have a RDEVICE similar to: RDEVICE 00E TYPE IMPACT_PRINTER, CLASSES S, FOLDUP YES, IMAGE_LIB IMAG3262 RDEVICE 00F TYPE IMPACT_PRINTER, CLASSES A RDEVICE 01E TYPE IMPACT_PRINTER, CLASSES F, FOLDUP YES, IMAGE_LIB IMAG4248 And then copy it to the second level SYSTEM CONFIG.

Can you SET RDEVICE ? vary on 5336-5338 HCPCPN6895I Device 5336 cannot be varied online because the device HCPCPN6895I identification data is inconclusive.
