Specify the name of the PPDS printer. This name is equal to the PPDS queue that
you want to create.
For the COMMAND to run for the printer output field, specify the name of the AIX
output queue asc, not the name of the PSF queue.
Verifying Your Configuration of PSF/6000
To test that the path between the RS/6000 system, PSF/6000 queue, and the
PSF/6000 printer is correct, specify the following:
enq -P psf6k /etc/qconfig
where psf6k is the name of the PSF/6000 queue.
If the file prints correctly, you can send and print AS/400 spooled files with AFP and
SCS data stream on the RS/6000 printer.
When sending spooled files to PSF/6000, always specify *OTHER for the LPR
destination type parameter.
For AFPDS, specify *NO for the transform SCS to ASCII parameter. We used the
AFP Utilities licensed program with the
Start AFP Utilities
(STRAFPU) command on
the AS/400 system to create an overlay that is named OVERLAY. It is this AFPDS
spooled file that you sent to the RS/6000 RCHRS001 in Figure 224. PSF/6000
converts the AFPDS data stream into PPDS automatically. For more information
about the AFP Utilities licensed program, see
AFP Utilities/400 User’s Guide and
Reference
, SH18-2416.
For the SCS data stream, you must specify *YES for the Transform SCS to ASCII
parameter. The AS/400 converts the SCS data stream from EBCDIC to ASCII (by
