turns off the spooler and closes the associated disk file. Any filtering,
linking, setting, or routing done
to
*PR is reset.
You
cannot close the disk file
by
issuing a RESET or REMOVE library
command. SPOOL must
be
turned off to close the file.
Sample Use
Since most programs produce reports faster than the printer can print
the data, you can use SPOOL
to
let the programs
run
at top speed
without having
to
stop
and
wait
on
the printer. That
is,
while the first
program's report
is
still printing, you can begin executing the second
program.
