      PSF/2: UPLOAD-N-PRINT ENHANCED TO ALLOW HOST PRINTER DESTINATION
 
 A  new EXEC 'AFRDIST' is now available to allow PSF/2 users of UPLOAD-N-PRINT
 to specify a host printer destination.  Users will now be able to select  any
 host  attached  printer  defined in the Upload table (PRINTDEF) to direct LAN
 jobs to a desired host printer. The host printer name may be specified in the
 DIST parameter on the APRINT command  and  will  override  the  default  host
 printer  defined  in the Upload-n-Print transform. The AFRDIST EXEC will work
 on both MVS and VM platforms.
 
 To obtain the AFRDIST EXEC request the  AFRDIST  PACKAGE  from  the  PRINTERS
 disk.  The following command can be used from a VM command line:
 
                     TOOLCAT PRINTERS GET AFRDIST PACKAGE
 
 
 The  following changes should be made in the online documentation for setting
 up Upload-n-Print when using AFRDIST.
 
 STEP ONE: Add the Upload-n-Print transform to PSF/2
 
 o   Item 10 should read: Change the entry in the Host Command entry field  to
     AFRDIST.
 
 o   Item  11  should  read:  Enter the name of a 'default' host printer to be
     used when a printer destination is not specified via the APRINT DIST= pa-
     rameter.
 
 STEP THREE: Edit the PRINTDEF table...
 
 o   Printer name: The printer name is specified with the ;p. keyword  and  is
     required.   It must match the printer name that was entered in the Upload
     Options panel or the name specified in the DIST= parameter on  an  APRINT
     command.
