<h1 class="topictitle1">Summary of spooling writer commands</h1>
<div><p>There are many commands that you can use to control
spooling writers.</p>
<ul><li>Start Diskette Writer (<span class="cmdname">STRDKTWTR</span>): Starts a spooling
writer to a specified diskette device to process spooled files on that device.</li>
<li>Start Printer Writer (<span class="cmdname">STRPRTWTR</span>): Starts a spooling
writer to a specified printer device to process spooled files on that device.</li>
<li>Start Remote Writer (<span class="cmdname">STRRMTWTR</span>): Starts a spooling
writer that sends spooled files from an output queue to a remote server.</li>
<li>Change Writer (<span class="cmdname">CHGWTR</span>): Allows you to change some
writer attributes, such as form type, number of file separator pages, or output
queue attributes.</li>
<li>Hold Writer (<span class="cmdname">HLDWTR</span>): Stops a writer at the end of
a record, at the end of a spooled file, or at the end of a page.</li>
<li>Release Writer (<span class="cmdname">RLSWTR</span>): Releases a previously held
writer for additional processing.</li>
<li>End Writer (<span class="cmdname">ENDWTR</span>): Ends a spooling writer and makes
the associated output device available to the server.</li>
</ul>
<div class="note"><span class="notetitle">Note:</span> You can define some functions to provide additional spooling support.
Example source and documentation for the commands, files, and programs for
these functions are part of library QUSRTOOL, which is an optionally installed
part of i5/OS™.</div>

<div><a href="rzaksoutputsp.htm" title="Output spooling can be used for both printer and diskette devices. Output spooling sends job output to disk storage instead of sending it directly to a printer or diskette output device. Output spooling allows the job that produces the output to continue processing without consideration for the speed or availability of output devices.">Output spooling</a></div>
<div><a href="rzaksoutputq.htm" title="Batch and interactive job processing can result in spooled output records that are to be processed on an output device, such as a printer or diskette drive. These output records are stored in spooled files until they can be processed. There can be many spooled files for a single job.">Output queues and spooled files</a></div>

<div><a href="rzakswriter.htm" title="A writer is an i5/OS program that takes spooled files from an output queue and produces them on an output device. The spooled files that have been placed on a particular output queue will remain stored in the server until a writer is started to the output queue.">Spooling writers</a></div>
<div><a href="rzaksinputsp.htm" title="Input spooling takes the information from the input device, prepares the job for scheduling, and places an entry in a job queue. Using input spooling, you can typically shorten job run time, increase the number of jobs that can be run sequentially, and improve device throughput.">Input spooling</a></div>
<div><a href="rzaksinputsp2.htm" title="The following commands may be used when submitting jobs to the server. The start reader commands may be used for spooling job input; the submit job commands do not use spooling.

You use SBMDBJOB or STRDBRDR to queue up a CL batch stream (stream of CL commands to be executed or run). That CL batch stream can include data to be placed into &#34;temporary&#34; files (inline files). When the job ends, the inline files are deleted.">Use an inline data file</a></div>
