Associating Mainframe Printer sessions with Mainframe Display sessions

You can use the /L! command line switch to associate a Mainframe Printer session with a Mainframe Display session. This command line switch directs print jobs that are queued up using the Display emulator to a specific Printer emulator, so the print jobs can be spooled and printed. This feature requires Printer Association to be configured on your Mainframe host.

1. In a Mainframe Display sessions, configure the LU Name:
   1. From the Mainframe Display menu bar, click Session → Configure.
   2. In the Connection Type list, select TN3270/TN3270E, and click Properties.
   3. In the Connection List list, select the session that you want to edit, and click Edit.
   4. In the LU Name field, type an LU name for the Mainframe Display. For example, type WS123.
   5. Click OK three times.
   6. Save and close the Mainframe Display session.
2. Use the /L! command line switch to start a Mainframe Printer session.
   For example, "C:\Program Files (x86)\BlueZone\6.2\bzmp.exe" /FRS73.zmp /L!WS123 starts the Mainframe Printer session RS73.zmp, and associates it to the Mainframe Display session with the LU name WS123.
