<p><span class="uicontrol">Detach printer output after jobs have ended</span>, also
known as <span class="uicontrol">QSPLFACN</span>, is a member of the jobs category
of i5/OS™ system
values. You can use this system value to specify whether printer output is
kept with a job or detached from the job. To learn more, keep reading.</p>

<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">What can I do with this system value?</h4><p>Use the associated
checkbox to specify whether printer output (spooled files) is kept with a
job or detached from the job.</p>
<p>Keeping printer output with jobs (*KEEP)
allows you to display printer output when you select <span class="uicontrol">Printer Output</span> on
jobs that have ended. The ended jobs will still count toward the limit of
jobs defined by the Maximum jobs system value. The job status becomes <span class="uicontrol">Completed...</span> (OUTQ)
when the job ends.</p>
<p>Detaching printer output from a job (*DETACH) means
that the job is removed from the system when the job ends. This reduces the
use of system resources by allowing job structures to be recycled when the
job ends. Because the job is removed from the system, the job interfaces can
no longer be used to work with the printer output for the job. However, this
option does not delete the printer output. To view the printer output for
a job that is removed from the system, open iSeries Navigator and select <span class="uicontrol">Basic
Operations</span>. Then, select <span class="uicontrol">Printer Output</span>.
The queue will list the output.</p>
<p>If you choose to keep printer output
with jobs and you have printer output in independent disk pools (also known
as auxiliary storage pools), you need to be aware of the following restriction:
printer output in independent disk pools is separate from the job. For example,
the independent disk pool may be varied off and moved to a different system.
While the job still exists and the disk pool is still varied on and is still
on the same system as the job, you can work with the job and display printer
output. But printer output in independent disk pools is not, by itself, reason
enough for the job to continue to exist. When the only printer output associated
with a job is on independent disk pools, the printer output is detached from
the job and the job is removed from the system.</p>
<p>For example, when a
job completes, it contains three printer output files: File1, File2, and File3.
At the user's request, File1 and File2 are either printed or deleted; however,
File3 still exists. Since File3 is on an independent disk pool, the job is
detached from the printer output File3. The printer output for that job is
still available but the job is removed from the system. </p>

learn more, go to the jobs system values overview topic. If you are looking
for a specific system value or category of system values, try using the i5/OS system
value finder.</p>
