PLBCS_APSPOOL Keyword
PLBCS_APSPOOL={ 0 | 1 | 2 }
The *APSPOOL control reports the PRINT and SPLOPEN redirection for a client program. By default, PRINT and SPLOPEN instructions are performed at the client. This control performs the operations at the server and is ignored by the PLBWIN runtime.
Note that a leading exclamation mark (!) in the printer or spool file name indicates that the operation should be performed on the client regardless of this keyword setting. The PLBCS_APSPOOL keyword may be specified in the server's configuration file.
The table below shows the print spooling operations based upon the keyword assigned value and a file or printer name that does not begin with an exclamation mark:

Printing and spooling instructions are performed on the client (default). |
|
1 |
Default PRINT instructions are performed at the client when the printer device is LPT(1-4): in the screen definition file. If the screen definition file is changed to specify some other file name for a print device, printing output is stored into the file at the sever. All SPOOL instructions for files occur at the server except if the file named is LPT(1-4):. If a spool file name LPT(1-4): is used, the print spooling operation is performed at the client workstation. |

2 |
Print spooling instructions are performed at the server. |
Example:
PLBCS_APSPOOL=1
