But, in most cases the dump for a PGT004 isn't useful, just allocate more PAGE Space to avoid it gets full. So DUMPLOAD isn't very useful. If you use DUMPLOAD, remember that the file remains in your reader (in USER HOLD status), so to get rid of it, issue PUR R spid (or type PUR R before the

Hi Mike, Don't do use a START command. It will process the queued files, then ignore any subsequent arrivals. Instead do a DEFINE printerid ASTART. This will start the printer for all currently queued file, and leave it ready to process new arrivals. Peter -Original Message-

How do you know that the printer is stuck? If the job has been in the queue or partly sent by RSCS, it could be that the printer needs intervention, like needing paper or toner. Doing what you do will cause these jobs to restart and hang again! Aria. On Wed, 7 Feb 2007 11:48:10 -0500 you said:

You have a very good point. In our case, most of the reports come from CICS and are just a few pages. I will however check the number of blocks for the file currently being stuck and if it is greater than a certain number of blocks then the procedure will not do the commands. Thanks Mike
