RE: Max 8 prtf's in a RPG pgm ?

[Henrik Krebs <hkrebs@xxxxxxxxx>]

A limit is a limit (well - maybe a DISK-file can be overridden to a
print file - I have only tried this with CPF-commands way back. Also a
SPECIAL file may call a printing program).

But much depends on what facilities you need. Is '9 files' needed to
distribute print to 9 different locations. Can you get the input in
that sequence? Then you only need 1 PRINTER. Close and reopen this
device file if you need more spool files.

Hi there,
Apparently there is a limit of 8 printer files allowed in a RPG
program. I 
have a program that needs to use 9 (possibly more). Any ideas on how
to 
achieve this (other than duplicating and splitting the process into 2
programs).
