Printing a Screen 

The Print facility provides a default formal designator for the print
command--the file is GLANCELP. The default device class is LP. Once
enabled, the Print facility prints each screen as it is updated.

To print, press:

        Print *  

The softkey changes to:

        Print * Enabled 

And the following message appears:

     Printing is now enabled

When printing is enabled, a hard copy will be printed each time the
screen updates and will continue to be printed if you select a new
screen.

To disable the Print Facility, press:

        Print * Enabled 

The following message appears:

     Printing is now disabled

The spool file is released to print.

To change the default device,

   *   Use the MPE (:)  command to enter a file equation:

       :FILE GLANCELP;DEV=[device]

The default option, CCTL, will print one screen per page.

To save paper by printing contiguously,

   *   Add the NOCCTL option to the file equation:

       :FILE GLANCELP;DEV=LP;NOCCTL
