The following examples assume that offset stacking is supported in Output Bin Value Y as specified in the
above table.
• Change the host output bin selection number to X in the default printer file using the CHGPRTF
command. (Assumes printer default bin mappings.)
• Create a new printer file using the CRTPRTF command and set the host output bin selection
number to X. (Assumes printer default bin mappings.)
• In the printer’s Option Card Menu > IPDS MENU > MAP OUTPUT BINS menu, change Bin
Mapping 1 output bin value from Standard Bin to Bin Y. (Assumes the host output bin selection
number is 1.) This routes all jobs that would normally have gone to the printer standard bin to bin
Y, which supports offset stacking. See MAP OUTPUT BINS Menu Options on page 36 for details
on bin mapping.
5.1.2 Mainframe Offset Stacking
For MVS JES2/JES3 offset stacking is controlled by the COPYMARK parameter contained in the printer
device definition statement in the JES2/JES3 initialization member. The following examples illustrate the
options and syntax for both JES2/JES3.
Example 1- JES2
JES2 Specifications using the COPYMARK parameter. (See note):
COPYMARK=DATASET Offset stacking increment on dataset boundary.
COPYMARK=JOB Offset stacking increment on job boundary.
COPYMARK=CONSTANT No offset stacking is performed.
Example 2 – JES3
JES3 Specifications using the COPYMARK parameter. (See note):
COPYMARK=C Offset stacking increment on dataset boundary.
COPYMARK=J Offset stacking increment on job boundary.
COPYMARK=N No offset stacking is performed.
Note: Copy marks are not generated by the IPDS emulation.
Example 3 - Output bin selection
The host default output bin selection number is 1, which selects the printer standard bin. If offset stacking
is supported in the printer standard bin, offset stacking will be performed.
Following are different ways to ensure jobs are offset. The following examples assume that an optional
bin is installed and offset stacking is supported in
• Specify OUTBIN in the JCL statements as follows:
//OUT1 OUTPUT OUTBIN=Y
//DDNAME DD SYSOUT=CLASS,OUTPUT=(*,OUT1)
physical bin 1. Refer to the table on page 50 for X and
Y values denoting the printer specific bin numbers.
• Specify OUTBIN=X in the OUTPUT DD card of your IEBGENER job.
• In the printer’s Option Card Menu > IPDS MENU > MAP OUTPUT BIN menu, change Bin
Mapping 1 output bin value from Standard Bin to Bin Y. (Assumes the host output bin selection
number is 1.) This routes all jobs that would normally have gone to the printer standard bin to bin
