The OS/400 Command interface is excellent, but it could be improved
"Abraham" has some ideas for improving OS/400 and RPG, which he says would require little investment or re-education of the OS/400 community. If IBM accepts these suggestions, the iSeries world would be a much better place, he says. Click over and read his ideas, then tell us what you think about them.

"LGRANT" has two LAN printers (HP LaserJet 4050 and HP LaserJet 4000) that are set up to print barcodes on the iSeries (820 V5R1). Both printers have been serviced, are maxed out with memory and have the required DIMM to enable them print barcodes. Still, printing is slow. What's going on? "RMalloy" advises. |
