NOTE: The lines in bold in Figure 43 are not used by PSF/400.
Instead, PSF/400 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/400 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

Configuring PSF With CRTDEVPRT On V3R7 And
Above
This section describes how to create a printer device description.
1.
At the AS/400 command line, enter a command in the form:
CRTDEVPRT DEVD(
printer_type) DEVCLS(*LAN) TYPE(*IPDS)
MODEL(0) LANATTACH(*IP) AFP(*YES) PORT(5001)
FONT(11) FORMFEED(*CONT)
RMTLOCNAME(‘128.9.12.134’)
USRDFNOBJ(AFP/5000NETPRT *PSFCFG)
TEXT(‘
printer_type NETWORK PRINTER’)
Where printer_type
(e.g., T5000, P5000, L5520)is the
model of your printer.
