Creating a dump file from a remapped spooled file

A dump file can be created from a mapped spooled file. The resulting file can then be sent to a remote system or directly sent to a printer.

To generate the file, you will need:

• a remapped spooled file which is available in an Outq
• access rights to read/modify mapping folders in the IFS

Example

1. Beforehand
   • Run command mapcpysplf to generate a document from a spooled file
   • Fill in the OutqName field
   • This document is now located in an « outq »
2. Creating the DUMP file
   • Run command mapsplf or select « Managing spooled files » in the Mapping Menu
   • This screen allows you to pick the spooled file
   • Press key P (transfer to PC) to display the menu
   • Enter the name of a .dmp file in the « Output file » field (do not use .pag files here).
3. Retrieving the resulting file
   • The file is now located in the IFS
