Modifying printer file parameters
The following sections describe the functions and use of the printer file 
parameters to define XES parameters.
You can use any of these commands to modify the printer file parameters 
shown in table 13-2:
CRTPRTF to create a printer file
CHGPRTF to modify an existing printer file
OVRPRTF to override an existing printer file
For instructions on how to use the CRTPRTF, CHGPRTF, and OVRPRTF 
commands, refer to OS/400 CL Reference and OS/400 Printer Device 
Programming
FORMFEED
Creates a shift command for the 4235 and 4213 printers. Table 13-3 
shows the options for the FORMFEED commands.
JOB
Constructs a job name for use in the XES command string from the Job 
number, User name, and Job name fields of the JOB spool file attribute.
FRONTOVL
Activates an XES form for the 4700, 4235, and 4213 printers, or a 
constant merge page load for 4030 printers on all odd side pages. The 
XES form name can be one to eight characters in length and must have a 
.FRM extension. Before an XES form can be used in a job, it must be 
resident on the printer.
BACKOVL
Activates an XES form for the 4700, 4235, and 4213 printers, or a 
constant page merge load for 4030 printers on all even side pages. The 
XES form name can be one to eight characters in length and must have a 
.FRM extension. Before an XES form can be used in a job, it must be 
resident on the printer.
If the BACKOVL value is *FRONTOVL, the front form or constant merge 
page is used.
For the 4030 XES printer, the form automatically downloads as a merged 
page before the required page.
Enter *NONE for the BACKOVL parameter if you do not want to use an 
electronic form.
