z/OS Communications Server: IP Network Print Facility
SC27-3658-00

  1. Assembler source statements CSECT, RMODE, AMODE, and END are generated by the EZAPPEFM macros and, therefore, should not be coded by the user.
  2. The EZAPPEFM macro with TYPE=SYSDFLT changes the system-wide default rule for LU0 sessions only. Under the new default rule for LU0, end-of-file is determined by the timer, with an idle interval of 15 seconds and a busy interval of 900 seconds (15 minutes).

    For LU1 and LU3 sessions, nothing is specified; therefore, the normal system-wide default rules, EOF1=EB and EOF3=EB, are used for those LU types.

  3. The EZAPPEFM macro with TYPE=ENTRY and the label DFLTNTRY defines the start of the first table entry. This entry is used by any SLU whose routing file record set up specified no end-of-file entry name or the entry name DFLTNTRY.

    This macro does not contain any EOFx= keywords. Therefore, the default rules applying to this table entry are the same as the system-wide default rules explained above.

  4. The EZAPPEFM macro with TYPE=ENTRY and the label ENTRY2 defines the start of the second table entry. This entry is used by any SLU whose routing file record specifies ENTRY2 as its end-of-file entry name.

    This macro contains an EOF3= keyword, which overrides the system-wide default rule for LU3 sessions. Under the default rule, end-of-file is marked by the character string End of Print Job, and that string should be left as part of the print data.

    For LU0 and LU1 sessions, nothing is specified; therefore, the system-wide default rules, EOF0=(TIMER,15,900) and EOF1=EB, apply to this table entry.

  5. For all SLUs using the entry named DFLTNTRY, the following end-of-file rules are used:
    1. If the PLU name is SPECAPL1, the print output for the entire session is treated as a single file for all LU types.
    2. If the PLU name starts with IMSA:
      • On LU3 sessions, end-of-file is determined by the timer, with an idle interval of 10 seconds and a busy interval of 3 hours.
      • On LU0 sessions, the system-wide default rule, EOF0=(TIMER,15,900), is used
      • On LU1 sessions, the system-wide default rule, EOF1=EB, is used
    3. If the PLU name does not start with IMSA but starts with IMS™:
      • On LU3 sessions, end-of-file is timer-determined, with an idle interval of 15 seconds and a busy interval of 15 minutes.
      • On LU0 sessions, the system-wide default rule, EOF0=(TIMER,15,900), is used
      • On LU1 sessions, the system-wide default rule, EOF1=EB, is used
    4. For all other PLU names, the Network Print Facility uses the default rules for the table entry.
  6. For all SLUs using the entry named ENTRY2, the following end-of-file rules are used:
    1. If the PLU name is SPECAPL2:
      • On LU1 sessions, each chain is treated as a separate file.
      • On LU0 sessions, the system-wide default rule, EOF0=(TIMER,15,900) is used
      • On LU3 sessions, this table entry's default rule, EOF3=(STRING,KEEP,C'End of Print Job'), is used
    2. If the PLU name contains XYZ for its 3rd thru 5th bytes:
      • On LU0 and LU3 sessions, end-of-file is marked by the string <<Temporary EOF String>>, and that string is deleted before the file is printed.
      • On LU1 sessions, the system-wide default rule, EOF1=EB, is used.
    3. For all other PLU names, the Network Print Facility uses the default rules for the table entry.
