re you asking what characters print on the printer? If so it depends on the print band you have in the printer One way would be to take off the print band and look at it generally the upper case letters and numbers are repeated multiple times but the special characters may only be on the band 1 or 2 times. There may be a way to do a hardware printer test that would print all of the characters. Your printer maintenance person may be able to run that test for you if you don't know how. The maintenace person probably has some of these book hidden away in the printer itself or some cabinet where he stores his work tools. Ask him if he has any books.
I'm pretty sure I have most of these books at work I think maybe that the system has to also know what print band is mounted in the pritner. If you issue a $TPRTx command in Jes2 (assuming you are JES2) and look for the parameter that I think is the train or chain or something like that. It may only be 4 characters or so. Well there is a matching member in SYS1.IMAGELIB (with some other prefix). The image lib member matches the characters on the print band. You may be able to browse this member also. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Marin" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Newsgroups: bit.listserv.ibm-main >> anyone know I would appreciate any information. > > I tried to find on IBM site some information about > impact printer model 4245, but probably because it's > out-of-date product I did not find anything, and in > my company, people lose bunch of documentation when > they where redecorating system room.
