Output PCL files

Scroll Prev Top Next More

The merged spooled files for laser printers are output PCL files, but you can also create output prn files with PCL commands inside in a few ways:

 

1.If you preview as PCL, then InterForm400 will create (or replace) the stream file in the IFS inside /APF3812Home/View with the same name as your user profile - without any extension.

2.If you preview the merged PCL spooled file with either of the commands: APFWRKOUTQ or APFWRKSPLF, then the stream file inside /APF3812Home/View with your user name is also updated.

3.You can also use the APF3812/APF3812 command to merge into a PCL file in the IFS. This can e.g. be used if you create a huge output file, that should be printed else where. This output file can even be zipped before you send it.
