Chapter 5 Configuring on AS/400 as an IPDS Printer

Configuring PSF/400 for IPDS on V3R7 and Above
To configure IPDS on AS/400 V3R7 and above, use the following
commands:
• CRTPSFCFG (Optional)
• CRTDEVPRT
Configuring AFP with CRTPSFCFG on V3R7 or V4R1
(Optional)
New for V3R7 is the ability to specify three TCP/IP-related parameters for
PSF in a printer device description: RMTLOCNAME, PORT, and
ACTTMR. In V3R2, CRTPSFCFG (Create PSF Configuration Object),
which replaced WRKAFP2, was used to specify these same parameters,
along with other parameters. In V3R7 and higher, these three parameters
are ignored when specified in a PSF configuration object, since they are
specified in a printer device description. However, you may wish to use a
PSF configuration object to specify other parameters, such as IPDS
passthrough, and so on.
The PSF configuration object created with this command is used by PSF/
400 when printing IPDS files only if the object is specified with the
USRDFNOBJ parameter in the printer device description.
To configure AS/400 for IPDS printing on V3R7 or V4R1:
1. At the AS/400 command line, enter a command in the form:
CRTPSFCFG PSFCFG(AFP/6400NETPRT) IPDSPASTHR(*YES)
RLSTMR(*SEC15) TEXT(‘IBM 6400 NETWORK
PRINTER’)
2. A completed screen looks like Figure 10.
