Greetings,
We are moving more and more of our printers from SNA to IP
and doing all the printing done through CICS to RSCS. I have set up all the
printers pretty much the same. Dynamically I usually do the following within an

Sometimes the client asks for the characters to be bigger but I
explain that for a fixed
font I cannot specify a point size when specifying PCL code. I know in
Microsoft Word, I
can specify, for example, Courier font and can choose a different
point size.
Well, you can specify it in the PCL
.
