Specify retention periods

These examples show how to specify these IP PrintWay™ retention periods:
  • Retention period of 1 day (24 hours) if the transmission is successful
  • Retention period of 4 days (96 hours) if the transmission fails
  1. In this example, the OUTPUT statement specifies a printer definition name. IP PrintWay uses the retention values specified on the OUTPUT statement instead of the values in this printer definition.
    //PWAYJOBE JOB …
    //STEP1    EXEC PGM=USERA
    //OUTDS    OUTPUT FSSDATA='printer=myprinter',
    //         RETAINF='96:00:00',RETAINS='24:00:00'
    //DD1      DD SYSOUT=P,OUTPUT=(*.OUTDS)
  2. In this example, the OUTPUT statement specifies a form and destination name. IP PrintWay uses the retention values specified on the OUTPUT statement instead of the values in the printer definition for the printer that matches this form and destination name.
    //PWAYJOBF JOB …
    //STEP1    EXEC PGM=USERA
    //OUTDS    OUTPUT CLASS=P,FORMS=WIDE,DEST=DEPT001,
    //         RETAINF='96:00:00',RETAINS='24:00:00'
    //DD1      DD SYSOUT=(,),OUTPUT=(*.OUTDS)
  3. In this example, the OUTPUT statement specifies the name of the print queue and the IP address of the host. IP PrintWay uses the retention values specified on the OUTPUT statement instead of the values in the default printer definition.
    //PWAYJOBG JOB …
    //STEP1    EXEC PGM=USERA
    //OUTDS    OUTPUT CLASS=P,DEST='IP:99.153.123.232',PRTQUEUE='RAW',
    //         RETAINF='96:00:00',RETAINS='24:00:00'
    //DD1      DD SYSOUT=(,),OUTPUT=(*.OUTDS)
