JES Queue for Printers
JES Queue for Printers
delivers reports from the JES output queue to TCP/IP or VTAM printers. JQP delivers output directly to the TCP/IP printer
or a Line Printer Daemon (LPD). The LCDS feature provides support for
Xerox's DocuPrint or DocuTech devices over TCP/IP eliminating SNA
hardware. Replace costly BUS/TAG printer hardware using your existing
TCP/IP printer network. JES Queue for Printers will interface with Solimar Systems, Barr
Systems, Rochester Software Associates and Xerox. No JES definitions or
changes are required. Option to support the Rijndael encryption
algorithm, Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) is available.
JES Queue for Printers uses the information
from the ROUTE PRINT, OUTPUT or DD statements to determine the reports'
destination. Every CICS printer in your shop can now be used as a
destination for output from batch jobs. Likewise, 3270-enabled PC
printers defined to VTAM and printers defined to the TCP/IP network are
available for batch output.

Product details
JES Queue for Printers (JQP) will
print any report from the JES output queue to printers defined to VTAM
and TCP/IP printers.
-
VTAM printer types supported are SNA,
NON-SNA and SCS.
-
Supports TCP/IP printers using the RFC
1179 Line Printer Daemon (LPD) protocol or if supported by the network
printer adapter, "direct" socket connection.
-
Reports in the JES output queue are automatically
selected based on their DESTID and printed to the printer defined for
that destination.
-
Both machine code and ASA control characters
are supported.
-
FCB emulation is supported using the FCB
images from the SYS1.IMAGELIB library.
-
A standard separator page is available
and an exit is provided for customizing the separator page.
-
Printers may be started or stopped as
necessary and reports may be halted and then restarted from the last
page printed or any line within the report.
-
Forms mounting is supported. Reports will not print unless the FORM
of the report matches the current printer’s FORM.
-
Commands are available to display the
status of reports currently printing or waiting to be printed. Commands
are also available to manipulate both printers and reports.
-
Security is provided to prevent users
from accessing reports and printers.
-
When multiple reports are to be printed
on the same printer, the report’s priority determines which report
will be printed first. This allows for "HOT" reports to be
printed first. Each printer defined has a specified maximum number of
lines allowed to prevent reports which exceed this number from printing
on the printer.
-
Printer translation tables are available
to convert certain hexadecimal characters in the report to prevent hardware
errors.
-
Reports are directed to a destination
name (which may or may not have the same name as the printer). This
allows the physical printer to have different options (separator pages,
page eject options, line width, maximum number of lines, and translate
table) based on the destination name.

"While upgrading to a new IBM 2066-001 mainframe,
Pekin Insurance wanted to also modernize the connectivity
configuration of their Solimar Print/Director system by changing the
communication protocol from BUS/TAG to TCP/IP. In order to maintain
data integrity using TCP/IP transfer, Pekin selected JES Queue for
Printers (JQP) from MacKinney Systems. JES Queue for Printers transfers reports
directly from the Pekin's mainframe JES queue to Solimar
Print/Director and is able to append header information to each job
and maintain proper carriage control codes for each print line. In
addition to facilitating TCP/IP connectivity, JES Queue for Printers enabled Pekin to
realize faster transfer rates and increased throughput compared to
the previously configured BUS/TAG connection."

"JES Queue for Printers
addressed an immediate need to route print from JES2 to IP
attached printers and saved over $100,000 in alternative hardware
or software solutions. The trial and implementation of JQP was
successful due to the quality support received from the Technical
support staff at MacKinney Systems."

"The
MacKinney staff is quick to answer any questions I have with JES
Queue for Printers
(or any other MacKinney product for that matter). They work fast
to diagnose and solve problems."

"We
are migrating from a VSE environment to OS/390. We use the
capabilities of the VSE TCP/IP to print to network printers. We use
another product to print to our VTAM Printers. JES Queue for
Printers solved the
problem of printing to both Network TCP/IP and VTAM printers. It
was straight forward to install and implement. I had it up and
running in approximately 4 hours. There were no changes to the MVS
or JES2 environment.
Adding a DEST to a /*Route or //OUTPUT was all that was necessary
to begin printing to the JQP printers.
The dynamic capabilities make it very flexible for adding/changing
printers. As with any MacKinney product, it was very cost
effective."

Patterson, North Carolina Department State Treasurer•
