<h4 id="rzaluconhptr5250">IBM remote 5250 emulation program configuration recommendations</h4>
<p>See the <cite>Remote 5250 Emulation
Program User's Guide</cite><span class="italic">,</span> G570-2203, for information on configuring printer sessions. For example,
use the IBM5204.PDT file and select 5219 Printer emulation for the IBM&reg; 5204 Quickwriter.
Configure printers that were not previously supported by the emulation program
using the TBLPRT.PDT and selecting 5219 printer emulation.</p>
<p>When the printer session is started, the iSeries server automatically creates
the printer device description (if automatic configuration is turned on).</p>
<p>On the iSeries server, use the Change Device Description (Printer) (CHGDEVPRT)
command to enable the host print transform.</p>
<p><span class="bold">Maintaining printer customization</span></p>
<p>Before you do the work of creating a workstation customizing object for
a printer, try printing jobs using the host print transform support. You might
not have to create a customizing object for the printer due to the extended
support provided by the host print transform.</p>
<p>The Remote 5250 Emulation Program supports printers through a printer description
table (PDT). If you have customized a printer by changing the supplied PDT,
use of the host print transform overrides this customization.</p>
<p>However, if you need to customize your printer while using the host print
transform, you should: </p>
<ol type="1">
<li>Make sure the host print transform is enabled.
<p>The TRANSFORM parameter
value for the printer device description must be *YES.</p></li>
<li>Make a note of the features you customized in the PDT.</li>
<li>Use a workstation customizing object that is compatible with the host
print transform.
<p>Update the features in this object to reflect the customized
features you used in the PDT.</p></li>
<li>Use the workstation customizing object name that is compatible with the
host print transform as the value for the WSCST parameter in the printer device
description.</li></ol>
<p>See <a href="../books/sc415605.pdf" target="_blank">Workstation Customization
Programming</a>

printers.</p>
