In this shop which I recently joined, operators use the LAB subtask of TLMS to print tape labels. The TLMSLBLS code was modified to use route code 19 to print a label when a tape dataset is created with a particular high level qualifier. The printer is defined as a 3286-2 console connected using twisted pair via a 3174. Although this meets our current need we are precariously relying on an aging and unsupported pin feed dot matrix printer to create the gummed labels.
Is there today a better way to accomplish this? Please note that our mainframe environment consist of two zSeries 890 processors with OSA-Express Console Support. I appreciate any input.
