Spool and Print Tools in Library QUSRTOOL

There are tools in QUSRTOOL that use some of the spooled file and print APIs. To show how to use these APIs, source code for these tools is provided in the examples.

These tools use most of the spooled file and print APIs discussed in this part. Additionally, some CL commands are used in the tools.

The tools are:

• Save and restore spooled files (SAVRSTSPLF) tool

  This tool uses the following spooled file APIs:

  • QSPCLOSP
  • QSPCRTSP
  • QSPGETSP
  • QUSLSPL
  • QUSRSPLA
  • QSPOPNSP
  • QSPPUTSP

  It also makes use of the following save and restore APIs:

  • QSRSAVO
  • QSRRSTO
  
  
• Transform AFP to ASCII data stream (TRNAFP) tool

  This tool uses the QWPZTAFP print API.

• Customized separator page exit program (QSPBLSEP) example

  This example of the customized print separator exit program builds program QSPBLSEP. QSPBLSEP can be used to generate data for separator pages.

• Page range support exit program (TSPRWPR) example

  This example of the Writer Transform exit program provides page range support for remote writers and CL commands Send TCP/IP Spooled File (SNDTCPSPLF) and LPR.

• LPR Print driver exit program (TSPLPRD) example

  This example of the Print Driver exit program provides the function of sending spooled files from an output queue to an ASCII printer device which is attached to an LPD server.
