Problem conclusion

• The correct version of ANFUBLK will be shipped. This APAR
  requires re-linking any user exit that requires the Block Text
  Formatting routine, ANFUBLK. For IP PrintWay supplied samples
  this affects ANFUXBD2 and ANFUXED1.
  
  
  Manual G544-5690, Infoprint Server Messages and Diagnosis will
  be updated with the following information for MSGANFM1198I:
  
  ANFM1198I   Data set: datasetname
              There was an error loading one of the ICONV tables:
              ICONV return code = errno
              document code page = coded character set name
              printer code page = coded character set name
  
  Explanation: The call to iconv_open failed due to an incorrect
  or unsupported code page being specified in the printer
  inventory. In the message, datasetname is the name of the data
  set at time of error; errno is the error number returned from
  iconv_open; coded character set name is the code page name
  obtained from the printer inventory.
  
  System Action: IP PrintWay attempts to again transmit the
  data set named in the message. If retries are exhausted or no
  retries were specified the data set is processed according to
  the retain time settings for the printer.
  
  Operator Response: No response is necessary.
  
  System Programmer Response: Ensure that the coded character
  set name is valid for your level of OS/390. Valid names can be
  found in the OS/390 C/C++ Programming Guide, Internationaliza-
  tion: Locales and Character Sets, Code Set Conversion
  Utilities, Code Set Converters Supplied and Universal Coded
  Character Set Converters.
  To correct jobs currently in process, the IP PrintWay ISPF
  panels should be used to update the queue record translation
  options with a valid coded character set name. To correct jobs
  in future submissions the Infoprint Server inventory should be
  updated with the correct coded character set names.
