Dear sir,
I am an engineer of the development project of the IPDS (Intelligent Printer Data Stream) receiver.
I have a question about your product PSF (Print Services Facility) z/OS.
In the IPDS reference manual, the behavior of the presentation services software, i.e. I think it should be the PSF in the z/OS, for the STM Reply X'F002' property pair as below.
"To minimize unwanted blank sheets within a print job, the presentation services software should activate any large or complex resources needed by the job before sending any of the pages for that job (including header pages)."
(from "Intelligent Printer Data Stream Reference" (AFPC-0001-11))
However, from our test, even though we are returning X'F002' property pair, PSF doesn't seem to behave that way. PSF doesn't seem to work that way.
Do we need configure something parameter for the PSF additionally? Or, we need to return any other property pair in the STM reply or Self-Defining Field in the OPC reply?
Otherwise, could you please tell me about the actual behavior of the PSF for the X'F002' property pair?
Thank you very much in advance.
