<h1 class="topictitle1">Java Print Service</h1>
<div><p> The Java™ Print Service (JPS) API allows printing on all Java platforms. Java 1.4
and subsequent versions provide a framework in which Java runtime
environments and third parties can provide stream generator plugins for producing
various formats for printing, such as PDF, Postscript, and Advanced
Function Presentation™ (AFP™). These plugins create the output formats from bi-dimensional
(2D) graphic calls.</p>
<p>An iSeries™ print
service represents a printer device that is configured on the iSeries with
the <span class="keyword">i5/OS™</span> command Create
Device Description (Printer) (CRTDEVPRT). Specify the publishing information
parameters when you create a printer device. This increases the number of
print service attributes supported by the iSeries print services. </p>
<p>If a printer supports Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP), configure
the printer on the iSeries. Specify *IBMSNMPDRV for the value of the
system driver program parameter in the CRTDEVPRT command. The print services
use SNMP to retrieve specific information (printer service attributes) about
a configured printer.</p>
<p>The Doc Flavors supported by the iSeries include *AFPDS, *SCS, *USERASCII
- (PCL), *USERASCII - (Postscript), and *USERASCII - (PDF). Specify the Doc
Flavors that the printer supports in the Data Streams Supported parameter
within the Publishing Information of the CRTDEVPRT command.</p>
<p>When an application uses a print service to print a job (document) on the iSeries,
the print service places the document into a spooled file on an output queue
with the same name as the printer device (also the same name as specified
in the PrinterName attribute). Start a printer writer with the command STRPRTWTR
before the documents print on the printer device.</p>
<p>In addition to the attributes defined by the Java Print Service specification, the iSeries print
services support the following attributes for all Doc Flavors:</p>
<ul><li>PrinterFile (specifies a printer file, name and library, to be used when
creating the spooled file)</li>
<li>SaveSpooledFile (indicates whether to save the spooled file)</li>
<li>UserData (a 10 character string of user defined data)</li>
<li>JobHold (indicates whether to hold the spooled file)</li>
<li>SourceDrawer (indicates the source drawer to use for the output media)</li>
</ul>
