Printing
You can use Z and I Emulator for Windows to print from display or printer sessions:
- From display sessions, you can print all (Print
Screen) or part (Trim Print) of the screen
of your session window on a workstation printer.
To print only part of the session window, drag the mouse to create a trimming rectangle around the part of the window you want to print and then select Print Screen from the File menu.
- With printer sessions, you can print files directly from a host
system to a workstation printer. Refer to the online help for more information.
Configure a printer session to designate a workstation printer as a system printer that will use either the printer definition tables (PDTs) provided with Z and I Emulator for Windows or the Windows printer drivers. Refer to the online help for more information.
To print, the following methods apply:
- You can use Windows printer drivers that you configure through the session File → Printer Setup menu.
- You can use printer definition tables (PDTs), which give greater control over the print data stream.
- For 5250 only: You can use Host Print Transform, where the host formats and builds the printer commands.
For more information about printing, refer to Emulator User's Reference.
