SYSGEN HINTS/TIPS. 3. 97/08/19 If you want to use PPFA barcode function, be sure you have all current maintenance applied. If HRI is requested, the HRI will be rendered using the printer default font, not the font specified on the FIELD FONT subcommand. Please read your printer hardware documentation before using barcodes. The documentation will tell you which barcode types, modifiers, modwidth, element heights and ratio values are valid for that printer. 2. 94/11/08 The new BIN in SUBGROUP function of the FORMDEF for cut sheet printers is supported only on the AFCCU 3935 printer. It is not supported on non-AFCCU cut-sheets: 381x, 382x, 391x, 3930, 4028. BIN in SUBGROUP, which was added to PPFA/370 and PPFA/AIX by APAR PN55431, allows users to specify input paper bin on the FORMDEF SUBGROUP subcommand. This allows you to print multiple copies of each page using a different type paper for each copy. For example, when printing 2 copies of each page you can print copy 1 on blue paper from bin 1 and copy 2 on yellow paper from bin 2, The BIN in SUBGROUP function is currently supported on PSF/MVS 2.2 and PSF/400 V3R1. 1. 94/07/22 For PPFA VM PTF UN61995, corr service exec C5688190 is changed. Once the PTF is ready to install (PTF parts on the 'B' disk), copy the C5688190 EXEC to the 'C' disk and delete it from the 'B' disk. As before, the EXEC must execute from the C disk. If a copy exists on the 'B' disk you will get RC=8 and the following msg. The exec will NOT install the service: *********************************************************** *** PPFA/370 Ver 1.1.0: *** Service EXEC found on the B disk *** and assumed to be part of this PTF. *** Please copy it to C disk and start again. *** Also please copy the new version to *** wherever you usually keep C5688190 EXEC *********************************************************** *** Service installation is terminated. *********************************************************** ************************************************************************ * SECTION 4.

If a PPFA/370 job issues the message AKQ402T this indicates that there is not enough storage available to create the PAGEDEF or FORMDEF. One possibility is that the region size is not large enough. Another is that the service level of PPFA does not support acquiring storage above the 16 Meg line. If the region size has been sufficiently increased and this APAR is not applied, application of this APAR may fix the problem. --PTF INCLUDE LIST-- UN61995 --PTF EXCLUDE LIST-- --PE APAR LIST--
