Enter a character string, from 1 to 256 characters long.
The specified string is a command specific to the operating system under which the CICS® Universal Client is running. When a request to print is received, the Client daemon generates a temporary print file with a unique name.
The parameter string is appended with the temporary file name, and the resultant command executed. This allows, for example, print requests to be copied to a file, directed to a local printer, formatted for inclusion into documentation, and so on.
It is the responsibility of the Print command to delete the temporary print file after it has finished processing it.
Use a shell script with the Print command (for example, lpr) followed by the command to delete (rm).
See also the Print file description for more information.
For details of the corresponding entry in the configuration file, see PRINTCOMMAND (CLIENT section of the configuration file).
