JES spool-driven

This method is valid for SNA-attached or TCP/IP-attached printers. A session with the printer is maintained while there is output on the JES spool and the printer is available. When there is no more output on the spool, and the disconnect interval expires, PSF ends the session with the printer. When there is more work on the spool for this printer, PSF attempts to restart the session. After the session is restarted, PSF must reload the resources required for the print jobs. With this method, there is no way for PSF to determine whether another print driver is active.

This method is requested by specifying the PSF parameters listed in Table 1, depending on whether you are using the Printer Inventory or the PRINTDEV statement. PSF parameters not listed in Table 1 can be set to whatever you want.
