Hello: I have a need on occasion to download stuff (listings or source) and print on a locally attached PC printer. Does anyone know of software (free or otherwise) that can do such a thing?
If you need to do this with any frequency you'll probably want to consider the direct mainframe to PC printing options mentioned in previous replies.
For less frequent printing needs, I have something that might do the trick for you. I wrote a Microsoft Word macro that converts ASA control characters into their Word equivalents for line spacing and page breaks. You simply download the mainframe print file with the embedded carriage control characters to your PC (using your terminal emulator's file transfer capability, FTP, or whatever is easiest for you), open the downloaded file in Word, run the macro, then print to any PC printer as with any other Word document.
If you're interested, contact me off list and I'll send you a copy of the macro with installation and usage instructions.
