Print Options

The Print Options screen (see the following figure) displays when you select option 7 from the User Parms menu. It lets you set the printer and output dataset characteristics used when you issue the PRINTP or PRINTDS command from Browse/Edit, Extract Formatted Print (printer only), and Audit Trail reports. Depending on the choice and form of the command, your output is printed on a printer or to a data set with some or all of the currently displayed rows.
