Syntax

ALTPRINT=<file-specification>

NOALTPRINT

file-specification: identifies an external file. Under z/OS, it can be a valid ddname, a physical filename, or the name of a file stored in the directory structure of the UNIX file system. The ddname must have been previously associated with an external file using either a TSO ALLOCATE command or a JCL DD statement.

Use the ALTPRINT= option to capture procedure output for printing.

The NOALTPRINT option causes any previous ALTPRINT specifications to be ignored.
