NOTE: The lines in bold in Figure 31 are not used by PSF.
Instead, PSF uses the information entered in the device
description screen.
3. The following parameters are recommended:
a. PSF configuration (PSFCFG)
The name used for this PSF configuration object. The
name must match the user-defined object name
(USRDFNOBJ) in the printer DEVD.
b. IPDS pass through (IPDSPASTHR)
To print SCS files, specify *YES, PSF transforms SCS into
IPDS before printing.
c. Activate release timer (ACTRLSTMR)
Specifies the point at which the release timer (RLSTMR) is
activated. Set to *NORDYF.
d. Release timer (RLSTMR)
Specifies the amount of time to wait before a session or
dialog is released without terminating the writer. The
ACTRLSTMR parameter specifies when this timer is to be
activated. Set the parameter to a value at least equal to the
TIMEOUT value on the printer. The recommended value is
*SEC15.
e. Page Size Control (PAGSIZCTL)
Specifies if the page size (FORMS) is set by PSF/400.
Usually set to *YES.
