IP PrintWay extended mode looks for an email header in the first 32 records of all line-data documents. If a header is found, it sends the email to the addresses in the header and with the subject specified in the header. If no header is found, it sends the email to the addresses specified on the OUTPUT JCL statement, in job attributes, or in the printer definition.
no
IP PrintWay extended mode does not look for email headers.

Default value

IP PrintWay does not look for an email header.

Usage guidelines

  • IP PrintWay extended mode does not look for email headers in documents with other formats (such as text, PCL, and PDF).
  • If you print VTAM® application data that contains email headers, specify netspool-formatting=convert-to-line (default).
  • An address or subject in the email header overrides the address and title that is specified on the OUTPUT JCL statement, in job attributes, and in the printer definition.
  • For the format of email headers, see z/OS Infoprint Server User's Guide.
  • IP PrintWay basic mode ignores this attribute. It does not look for email headers in line-data documents.
