Please note: I have now had several requests but I do not have any VP/CSS materials or the actual OS. I also don't know anyone who would have access to such a thing. Folks is getting old.....

Sorry for the delay. As usual life gets in the way. SCHMAC MACLIB has been regenerated under VM/370 CE V1R1. ... Mark S

Actually, with latest hercules (Hercules version 4.4.1.10647-SDL-gd0ccfbc9). this is what I see in the file: 00000000? 9f 0d 0c 0a 0a 0a 0a 0a? 0a 0a 0a 0a 0a 0a 0a 0a? |................|

Great. thanks for detailed explanation. But that doesn't happen on z/VM or VM/ESA, and why do you see 4 more bytes after 0xff, but before form feed? It is not that you just see 0xff and form feed, but

Also, to be proper, such a "fix" should be even more complicated: it should not do its work when there are multiple non-space characters printed in the same position. Those would be meant as bold, or

Not true. Its possible to generate multiple "FF" characters in a print file. It appears to be when you tell CP to START a printer, so commence printing from the Spool. So a DRAIN and START, or a

Hello! Giving credit where it is due, those two text files were ones I created from printer output runs from my first go round VM/370rel6, and noted the presence of the banner. Dave W confirmed why

I am uploading the print file and the trace log to the "0-Temp" directory on h390-vm. Bob

Except that without looking at the EBCDIC<->ASCII table in use, it may not have been a X'FF' that VM cranked out. Tony H.
