File transfer parms to download LISTPS

Question

What are the file transfer parameters required for transferring PostScript files from the host to a PostScript printer?

Answer

  For pcxfer use:

    pcxfer fn listps ft to C:fn.lps
       (recfm V lrecl 65535 notran edit
    pcxfer fn listps ft to LPT1
       (recfm V lrecl 65535 notran edit

  Note:  The pcxfer command all goes on one line, it just doesn't fit on the
  foil.

  For 3270 Entry Level Emulation Program use:

    receive fn.ext fn ft fm (crlf
    receive fn.ext fn.listps (crlf

  Net:  the file as it arrives in the PC environment should include readable
  (ASCII) PostScript commands but unreadable (EBCDIC) text strings. If you
  can read everything, the file will not print on the printer.
