Anne, I see it. Infoprint Central (what we call the GUI) is for working with jobs and printers for operations basically, but not for Adminstrator tasks. The book says, on that page:
Infoprint Central lets users display information about, but not work with, these objects: * Printer definitions * Printer pool definitions * Infoprint Server daemons To make a permanent new IP address for one of the printer definitions, use the ISPF panels instead of Infoprint Central. You should be a member of the AOPADMIN group to change printer definitions in the inventory. See page 55 in that manual for more details. If you want to change the mapping of a host-name to an IP address, that would be done in your DNS instead of Infoprint. Changing the IP address for a printer definition in the ISPF panels does not require an IPL. As soon as you PF3 back out of the panel where you changed the printer definition, you will see a message like "Element was updated". As soon as you see that your printer definition modifications are in effect to be used. --Roger On Mon, Feb 12, 2018 at 12:14 PM, Adams, Anne (DTI) <[email protected]> wrote: > Hey Roger - > > People here want to be able to change the printer definitions (ie.
