Re: Mass Creation of Printer Device Desc.

[CRPence <CRPbottle@xxxxxxxxx>]

  The given data, for example as RTVCFGSRC output that was directed 
to a source member, can be submitted almost directly [i.e. no 
compile anyway] as a batch stream job; like JCL.  Insert the 
//BCHJOB as the first row, and [I believe optionally due to EOF] 
insert //ENDBCHJOB as the last row.  On the BCHJOB there is an 
ENDSEV which can allow failing commands to be ignored.  Issue 
SBMDBJOB against the source file member, as named on the FILE() and 
MBR() parameters of that command.
