SPOOL

You can print POSIX files with SPOOL, using BS2000 or POSIX commands.

Example

Print the POSIX file /home/psxroot/usr1 from BS2000:

/PRINT-DOCUMENT FROM-FILE='/home/psxroot/usr1',...

Print the same POSIX file from the POSIX shell:

/START-POSIX-SHELL
.
.
.
/home/psxroot> lp usr1
/home/psxroot> exit

You can print POSIX files on the connected BS2000 printer by means of the POSIX lp command. The lp command uses BS2000 SPOOL for printing. No ID is assigned for a print job.
Print jobs can be only managed via BS2000 SPOOL.

See the SPOOL manuals [32] and [33] for more information.
