Through the use of the Edit Terminal Records program, each VDT is assigned a default CARS+ report printer. This program allows a user to temporarily redirect CARS+ reports to a printer other than the user's default. Any changes made with this program will remain in effect until either an additional change is made or the user logs off.

To access the Change Report Printer program, type CHGRPT (RET) at any menu "OPTION:" field or the appropriate line number on the System Configuration menu. The screen will then display your default CARS+ report printer assignment.

Enter data as follows:

1. REPORT PRINTER

Enter up to 10 alphanumeric characters to indicate the terminal name of the new printer to be used for CARS+ reports. Press RET to default to the current assigned printer.

One of the following situations must apply to the terminal name entered:

a. The terminal name is defined as a printer in the Terminal Records File. Acceptable entries are local printers or print queues.

OR

b. Reports can be printed on a printer that is connected to the user's own VDT by entering the terminal name of that VDT. This will only work if the terminal record has a remote printer defined in Field 7. CARS+ reports cannot be sent to a printer attached to another user's VDT.

EXAMPLE: Type ttyaalp (RET)

The screen will then display your default CARS+ report printer assignment.
