Bertram,

OK so I did some experimentation, but still need to do more work¡­.

?

1. In DMKRIO I defined device 0CF as a 3284 printer.

2. In the Hercules configuration file I defined 0CF as a 3270 with a pool name of PRT

3. I set up an IBM PC Communications session to connect with a pool of PRT

?

And provided I leave the PCOMMS session as a TERMINAL it connects¡­. But not as a printer.. why might this be?

¡­ and after issuing a SET PF1 COPY 0CF pressing PF1 results in some data being sent to a printer somewhere, I think¡­¡­¡­

. indeed if both screens are set to 24x80 the data is copied.

So I suspect this support wasn¡¯t updated when we added dynamic screen size selection¡­

.. but I still don¡¯t see how it could be useful¡­

?

Hello,

I never had the opportunity to have a 3270 terminal printer during my time as a lead systems programmer at TI LICC or OCF Research Center.

I'm wondering how to define this in the configuration file to Hercules and in DMKRIO.? My hope is this might make it easier to copy & paste text on the 3270 devices we use to email or other programs.
