<h5 id="rzaludbcsonalpha">Double-byte data printed on alphanumeric printers</h5>
<p>Printing DBCS output on an alphanumeric printer can result in degradation
of system performance.</p>
<p>In addition, the following occurs using printer files that are indicated
to be DBCS-capable through DDS or with the IGCDTA parameter: </p>
<ul>
<li>For direct printer output, the system prints the file and sends a diagnostic
message describing the situation to your program message queue.
<p>Instead
of printing double-byte data, the system prints double-byte characters as
underscores (__) and prints shift-control characters as blanks (&nbsp;&nbsp;).
Although the system does not print the individual double-byte characters,
they are correctly stored in the system.</p></li>
<li>For spooled printer output, the system sends an inquiry message to the
message queue named on the Start Printer Writer (STRPRTWTR) command. This
message lets you do the following:
<ul>
<li>Continue printing. When you continue printing, the system prints the
file but does not print double-byte characters within it. Instead, the system
prints double-byte characters as underscores (__) and prints shift-control
characters as blanks (&nbsp;&nbsp;). Although the system does not print the
individual double-byte characters, they are correctly stored in the system.</li>
<li>Hold the spooled file so that you can transfer it to an output queue used
only for DBCS output. See <a href="rzalumovesplf.htm#rzalumovesplf">Move a spooled file</a> for instructions on
transferring a spooled file.</li>
<li>Cancel printing altogether.</li></ul></li></ul>
