Overriding Print Labeling Defaults

Overriding Print Labeling Defaults

If authorized by RACF®, you can use these JCL keywords in the OUTPUT statement to change the definition of print labeling:

DPAGELBL=YES|NO
Indicates whether a label is printed on each data page.
SYSAREA=YES|NO
Indicates whether the printable area is restricted to the system-defined UPA.

If SYSAREA=YES is specified, any attempt to print outside the UPA results in error messages.

If your printer does not support guaranteed print labeling, use SYSAREA=NO. To determine if your printer supports guaranteed print labeling, see Printer Support in PSF.

Figure 18 shows an example of the OUTPUT statement used to override PSF defaults.
