CHGDEVPRT (Change Device Description (Printer))

CHGDEVPRT Command syntax diagram

 

Purpose

The Change Device Description (Printer) (CHGDEVPRT) command changes a device description for a printer device. See the Create Device Description (Printer) command (CRTDEVPRT) in this book for a list of the manufacturers, types, and models for printers using the host print transform function.

 

Required Parameters

DEVD
Specifies the name of the device description being changed.

 

Optional Parameters

SWTLINLST
Specifies the name of the switched lines to which a 3812 printer is associated when DEVCLS(*LAN) and LANATTACH(*LEXLINK) or LANATTACH(*USRDFN) is specified. The types of switched lines this printer may associate with are: frame relay direct, Token-Ring, Ethernet IEEE 802.3, and Ethernet with all standards specified. A maximum of 8 switched lines can be specified.

ADPTADR
Specifies the LAN address of the remote printer when DEVCLS(*LAN) and LANATTACH(*LEXLINK) or LANATTACH(*USRDFN) is specified.

*SAME: The value does not change.

printer-address: Specify the 12-character hexadecimal LAN address of the remote printer. Valid values range from 000000000001 through FFFFFFFFFFFE.

ADPTTYPE
Specifies the type of LAN printer adapter to be used when DEVCLS(*LAN) and LANATTACH(*LEXLINK) or LANATTACH(*USRDFN) is specified.

*SAME: The value does not change.

*INTERNAL: The printer has an internal LAN adapter card.

*EXTERNAL: The printer has an external LAN adapter.

ADPTCNNTYP
Specifies the type of ports supported by the external LAN printer adapter when DEVCLS(*LAN) and ADPTTYPE(*EXTERNAL) are specified.

*SAME: The value does not change.

*PARALLEL: The LAN printer adapter supports one or more parallel ports.

*SERIAL: The LAN printer adapter supports one or more serial ports.

Note: This parameter is ignored when ADPTTYPE(*INTERNAL) is specified.

AFP
Specifies whether the printer device uses advanced function printing* support. This parameter is used only if DEVCLS (*LCL or *RMT or *LAN) and TYPE(*IPDS) are specified.

 

Notes

  1. The DEVCLS and TYPE parameters are not changeable; they must be checked and their values specified while the user is specifying whether printers are configured for advanced function printing support.

  2. If you change the value on the AFP parameter from *NO to *YES, power down the printer to reset the power-on defaults (such as forms length).

  3. If AFP(*YES) is specified, the Print Services Facility/400 feature must be installed on the system.

Most IPDS* printers can be configured with AFP(*YES) or AFP(*NO). Most non-IPDS printers can be configured only with AFP(*NO). If you change the value on this parameter from *NO to *YES when you run the CHGDEVPRT command, power down the printer to reset power on defaults.

*SAME: The value does not change.

*NO: The printer does not use advanced function printing support.

*YES: The printer uses advanced function printing support.

PORT
Specifies the port number for the device. Valid values range from 0 through 65535. Some printer devices may further restrict the valid value range.

For printers attached to a TCP/IP network, where DEVCLS(*LAN), TYPE(3812), and LANATTACH(*IP) are specified:

Note: If the device supports the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP), SYSDRVPGM(*IBMSNMPDRV), or the HP Printer Job Language (PJL), SYSDRVPGM(*IBMPJLDRV), refer to the device's documentation, or contact the device manufacturer to determine the port number.

If the device supports the Internet Printing Protocol (IPP), SYSDRVPGM(*IBMIPPDRV), the well known port number is 631.

For twinaxial devices: Valid values range from 0 through 7.

For printers attached to the ASCII workstation controller: Valid values range from 0 through 17 and indicate to which port of the ASCII work station controller the printer is attached. Without the 12-port expansion feature, only ports 0 through 5 are valid. With the 12-port expansion feature, ports 6 through 17 are added.

For printers attached to a LAN, where DEVCLS(*LAN), TYPE(3812), and LANATTACH(*LEXLINK) or LANATTACH(*USRDFN):

Note:

If ADPTTYPE(*EXTERNAL) is specified, the port number value indicates which parallel or serial port to use, if there is more than one port on the external LAN adapter. Valid values range from 0 through 17.

If ADPTTYPE(*INTERNAL) is specified, the port number is not required.>
