Specifying input parameters
2-6 Using LCDS Print Description Language
• When the system is operating online in 3211 or 4245
emulation mode, forms control buffers (FCBs) are received
from the host to redefine channel-to-line number
assignments and to set margins based on the print position
indexing byte.
• If the print position indexing (PPI) byte of the FCB is enabled,
it is not suppressed by FCB=IGNORE. If an FCB with a PPI
byte is received, indexing is invoked; if an FCB without a PPI
byte is received, indexing is turned off (even if
FCB=IGNORE).
CAUTION
Use of the PPI byte to shift the starting print position may cause
problems in recognition of both DJDEs and banner pages.
• On the FreeFlow Print Server LCDS system, the maximum
record length is 12288 bytes. This limit is not influenced by
print position indexing. However, on other LPS systems, you
should not use PPI for print record lengths from 151 bytes to
214 bytes.
Example of an online JSL
The following figure shows an example of an online JSL that
contains several input processing commands. This JSL would be
used only for printing a job sent from a host over a channel or
through a TCP/IP gateway.
